A Division deciding series at the helm where the Angels guided by Douglas Zaner meets up with the Twins and skipper Chris Kaufman.


Game 1: Minnesota 7 - California 5
Lazorko vs Grant - California outhits Minnesota 13-12. Minnesota scores first in the 2nd inning on a sacrifice fly by Earl Battey. Then in the 3rd Minnesota explodes for 4 runs. Mudcat Grant helps his cause by doubling and Tony O smacks a two-run dinger. Minnesota scores two more that inning with hits by Versalles and Kostro.  California plates two runs in the 5th with hits by Schofield, Miller and Ray. California mounts a comeback in the 9th with two runs but falls short and Twins win the first game.



Game 2: Minnesota 10 - California 5
Frazier vs Stigman - Minnesota scores 9 of their 10 runs in the first 4 innings as Oliva, Hall and Kostro have multi hit games.  Highlight for California was a 3-run jack by Devon White in the 3rd inning.










Game 3: Minnesota 12 - California 3
Witt vs Pascual - A one sided game here as the the Twins explode for 12 runs on 14 hits with only one homer.  A punch and judy hitting team these twins are. As Killer was salivating at the plate he did not hit a homerun all series. Darrell Miller hits a solo shot for the Angels.  Pascual pitches a complete game allowing 5 hits.
