Detroit – On Thursday the Minnesota Twins beat the Detroit to win 8-3 victory and stops the Tigers for their chance to win the first division title, which they never had in their 22 years as a team.

The Minnesota Twins has been able to evade getting eliminated from the playoff race and now positioned themselves within two games with the Tigers.

Denard Span, Twin’s outfielder, just does not want to see them celebrating yet. The Showdown in Motown has made both teams split on a four game series. Although the Tigers had their chance in wrapping up the game and win the division crown which they won in 1987, their players had a hard time on the three-run third inning and the four-run eighth. Detroit has made an indention by starting the series with a two-game lead and did not give the Tigers chance to survive.

They have controlled their fate in that game and were given the chance to earn it. However, the Tigers were given credit for their good play. Detroit has still three games to play in their sleeve but they are not worrying because they can always lead the games. They only have to play good baseball just like how they do it at home.

The test is yet to come when the game will be decided this weekend or it could be next week if there will be ties in their games.

In case Detroit will defeat the Chicago White Sox led by Ozzie Guillen two times at home, the Detroit will win the division. But if they cannot, then the Tigers would be dealing with the Kansas City Royals who finished their season at Minnesota.
Minnesota Twins manager Ron Gardehire said they will be going to the dome to deal with their opponent during the weekends and he is sure he can beat the Royals once and for all.

During the game, people became hot-tempered. Jim Leyland, Detroit manager, argued with umpire Angel Hernandez after an inside pitch. The face-to-face argument is enough for Leyland to be ejected. Jeremy Bonderman, Tigers’ pitcher and Laird were also thrown out of the game during the home half. There was a commotion when Bonderman plunked the leg of Twins’ outfielder, Delmon Young. The commotion was controlled and the play continues.

Delonte West, having missed a couple days of training camp is back, albeit with unexcused absences. West belongs to the Cleveland Cavaliers, and according to coach, Mike Brown, after having West back, he had a good practice with the team.

Currently facing issues that might affect his career, he declined meeting the press, together with general manager Danny Ferry.

The team’s Mr. Ferry will be addressing this current issue West is facing on Saturday, at the team’s practice at the University of Akron.

This current issue pertains to the time he was caught in Maryland. West was asked to pull over by the traffic police of Maryland because of a traffic violation. He, then, pulled over his three-wheeled motorcycle and upon checking, was found out that he was carrying loaded weapons. That is right! Not only one, but three loaded weapons. A couple of loaded handguns, and one loaded shotgun. These items were placed in a guitar case.

Currently facing charges of gun possessions, possible consequence that West could receive as outcome could be a league suspension.

O’Neil feels that West is quite important to the team, and according to him, they will be supporting and backing him up. He believes that not only is he vital to the team, but is a fabulous player as well.

West’s statistics has him having eleven point seven points during the regular season last year, and is considered one of the second most important players in the playoffs after LeBron James.

Post season has West playing forty two minutes, and having an average of thirteen point eight points,  four assists and three point five rebounds, in all fourteen games.

Now you can see why O’Neil is ensuring that the public and team officials be fair in coming up with a decision over West’s current dilemma, and hopefully, be able to have him play in the coming season.
