5	Tues night ....If you see the Dome a rockin' don't come a knocking! The Twins best homefield advantage is not the roof but the Great fans waving Homer Hankies and getting loud....Porcello is going to be totally psyched out for this one. Totally different than the series early in Sept. That "noise" can be scary for someone who has not experience it before. Leyland should bring them to Vikes game tonight just for the experience.

GOOD LUCK TIGERS! ALWAYS A FAN! Give it your best. If you don't win, good luck Twins with the Yankees, kick their BUTTS! It's been a FUN season, because of you guys here on the Q, thank you!

Your right now is the time. How bad to you want this, either we do this and move on or go home and be done. So Tigers have the pitching, the hitting, and the heart, but so do the Twins. I still think the Tigers are better but the Twins are a pesky bunch.good luck to your Tigers, would enjoy watching them pitch in the playoffs.

1	With the close race between the Twins and the Tigers this year I don't think this game will be a blow out but, if Joe Mauer can get some pitches his way and get some overdue HomeRuns this game should/could be one for the record books for the Twins....of course the Pitching will have to be TOP Notch as well to keep the Tigers under control..

The Twins won the season series, 11-7; this gives them the right to host today's game...last year was done by coin flip, so it was played in Chicago, even though Twins won the head-to-head. At least they changed THAT!! 3-1 Tigers in the 4th; Cabrera making up for his antics over the weekend...double and 2-run HR so far; GO TWINS!! Start the comeback!!
