The End Looms
Well, three games to go before the baseball season wraps up and seven of the eight teams who will move on to the post season have been decided. Two teams are left and one spot remains. It's looking like the Twins will be odd team out. Two games back with three games to play is not a great place to be. The Twins have played excellent baseball the last few weeks and made the American League Central the only interesting race in baseball this year. It sucks that it seems they are going to fall short so close to the end but I guess it's more fun to see your team play well and come close than languish far below .500 all season like fans of the Orioles, Royals, and Pirates do every year. It's cool to be a fan of a small market team that always seems to be in it every season, even if baseball pundits, announcers and writers never give them the respect they deserve.
