The Twins didn't disappoint! We went to Saturday's game with Aaron's family, and, thanks to Dustin & Michelle, Sheila and I were able to join almost the entire Robish clan at Sunday's game as well! After sweeping the Royals and getting some help from the White Sox, they now have another regular season playoff game to decide the AL central tomorrow for the second year in a row! This is the first time in MLB history that a team has had 2 consecutive playoff games for a division title. They did this by going 16-4 in their last 20 games! Amazing!!
Yesterday, they had a post game tribute to the dome with a bunch of old twins players from the metrodome era. They finished it off by having Harmon Killebrew, Rod Carew, and Tony Olivia, who were stars from the Twins' outdoor baseball era at the Met, raise up the flags at the new Target Field.
However, the dome isn't done yet! One more game tomorrow and hopefully alot more playoff games there yet this year!!
Here are some photos!
Sheila and Owen got to meet TC!

Kent Hrbek gave the farewell speech. He said "this was supposed to be the final regular season game here and these guys went and screwed it up, now we have to come back here on Tuesday and drink more beer!"
We miss you, Kirby!
