The postseason is slowly progressing as the playoffs continue to shrink on a near-daily basis.
Starting in the American League, the Houston Astros finished off the Minnesota Twins on the road, ending the Twins’ playoff dreams in front of their home crowd. As someone who attended the 2012, 2013, and 2019 A’s playoff games when they were eliminated at home, I can sympathize with the heartbreak of watching the team you love lose in front of you in the playoffs. It’s hard. Twins fans, take solace in that you should have an excellent chance at another try in next year’s postseason.
