  • Twins outlast Tigers in 12, win Central (AP)

    Detroit Tigers' Brandon Inge(notes) argues with home plate umpire Randy Marsh after Inge thought he was hit by a pitch during the 12th inning of a baseball game Tuesday, Oct. 6, 2009, in Minneapolis. The Twins won 6-5 in 12 innings, advancing to the playoffs.

    The Metrodome erupted in a jet-like roar as Carlos Gomez zoomed home with the winning run to finish off an AL Central race — and a thrilling tiebreaker — that didn't want to end. Minnesota wouldn't quit, while the Detroit Tigers finished their historic fade. And there was little time for the Twins to celebrate, because the New York Yankees were waiting.
