If the play-in game between the White Sox and Twins is any indication on how this postseason is going to be, then hold onto your hats kids, because it is going to be very exciting! Ken Griffey, Jr. made a pinpoint throw from center to catcher A.J. Pierzynski who held onto the ball while being knocked to the ground by Twins DH Michael Cuddyer to perserve a scoreless tie, which was then broken up by a Jim Thome solo shot in the White Sox 1-0 win. The Sox will advance to the ALDS to play the Rays on Thursday.
