    Glad I was incorrect. But it was close. First back to back division titles in team history.

    Congrats!!



    CLEVELAND -- It took a loss from the Angels to make it official, but the Twins made history on Wednesday night, becoming the first team in Major League history to make the postseason one season after losing 100 or more games.

    The Twins, who lost a Major League-high 103 games in 2016, are baseball's Cinderella story in '17, having clinched a spot as the second American League Wild Card team hours after their 4-2 loss to the Indians at Progressive Field on Wednesday night. The clinch came when White Sox first baseman/outfielder Nicky Delmonico crushed a walk-off home run in the bottom of the 10th inning to give Chicago a 6-4 win over the Angels. Twins players, who had hung around the visiting clubhouse at Progressive Field after their game ended, watched with excitement as the ball cleared the fence and the celebration was on.

    Red Sox magic number to clinch the AL East is down to 2 now and the Rockies magic number to clinch the final Wild Card in the NL is down to 2 as well.

    And, with the way the rotation has been down the stretch, I really don't like the Red Sox chances against either Cleveland or Houston, whoever they end up getting in the first round.
