Minnesota Twins - 2019 AL Central Champions!!!

I'm stepping away from books and science for a day to brag a bit about my favorite baseball team from my youth, the Minnesota Twins. The regular season ended and the Twins won the AL Central for the first time since 2010 and hit 100 wins in a season for only the second time in franchise history!!! Along the way they were the first team ever to hit 300 homers in a season and set several other offensive records. A truly great season. They do not go into the playoffs as favorites as the New York Yankees and Houston Astros had a better record. The Twins will play the Yankees later this week. The Twins have had a horrible track record against the Yankees in the playoffs, but it's a new year, so maybe they can break free and win. We shall see. Even if they can't get past the Yankees, it was still an amazing season for a team that was predicted to do much worse than this!
