Subject: Twins @ A's

The Twins went out the west coast for the last time of 1970 for a very
important series with the never say die A's. The Twins were hoping to take
advantage of the fact that they had won 11 of their last 12 games and put
some distance between them and the A's as this season long pennant race goes
into the home stretch. The two teams would once again split a four game
series.

One note: despite ever annoying pleas, Danny Thompson was not allowed to
pitch.

Game One:

Twins 7 A's 2

Jim Perry scattered 8 hits over 7 innings to win his 20th.Tony Oliva and
Harmon Killebrew each hit homers to lead the offense. Rick Monday - great
saver of the American Flag - went 4 for 4 for the A's.

Game Two:

Twins 6 A's 5

The A's got off to a 5-1 lead as they sent Fergie Jenkins to an early
shower. But, Blue Moon Odom and Diego Segui could not hold the lead as the
Twins went up 6-5 in the seventh. Twin relievers Tom Hall and Ron Perranoski
shut the A's down over the last four innings as Hall gains his 6th win, and
Perranoski gets his 21st save. The A"s were victimized by terrible fielding
in this one as they made 4 errors. This is a game, that if the Twins win the
division by a game or two, they will look back and realize luck was on their
side this year. The A's usually play much better against the Twins then they
did in this one.

Game Three:

A's 10 Twins 3

This one was all A's as Twin starter Bill Hands was gone by the 4th inning -
on his way to his 13th loss. Meanwhile, Andy Messersmith pitched well in a
complete game effort to gain his 13th win. Andy also helped his cause by
knocking in two runs with a 2 for 4 effort at the plate. Joe Rudi had 4 RBI
for the A's as well.

Game Four:

A's 4 Twins 3

The A's special pitcher for games against Minnesota only - Vida Blue - once
again provides the A's with 7 solid innings to go to 4-0. If the A's ever
bring this kid up for a whole season, he is sure to win 20. The Twins almost
make a grand comeback in the ninth, but come up a run short.

This game was frustrating for the Twins as they had chances to put more runs
on the board, but failed to execute sacrafices, squeeze plays, etc. Also,
the Twins manager Rick Ramacier made some questionable moves in hindsight.

If the Twins finish one game out of first, this game will provide future
nightmares.
