A Twinkie Tie

Which when everyone, including Gleeman, had conceded the AL Central to Detroit, the Twins charged back tonight to tie the division again, hitting a game-tying homer with two outs in the ninth, before Jason Bartlett won it in the 10th on a Gene Larkin-like bases-loaded single to center.

The Tigers lost earlier in the day, in order to facilitate the tie. However, the tie isn't really a tie, since Detroit wins the tiebreaker, so the Twins will have to make up one more game in order to claim their fourth division title in five years.

Best of all? Brad Radke returned to make the final regular-season start of his career, pitching five innings of three-hit ball, and giving up only a single (unearned) run. With him, and not Carlos Silva, in the playoff rotation, the Twins' chances of winning at least one series raise about 1000%.

And that vaunted Yankees lineup we're supposed to be afraid of? They almost got no-hit, at home, by Baltimore.
