      <description>Anyone who knows me knows I am a big J.J. Hardy fan. I have always liked the way he has played. So when I found out that he was traded to the Minnesota Twins today from the Milwaukee Brewers for center fielder Carlos Gomez, I thought ?Wow, what a steal for the Twins.?

      <description>The Yankees make the tired Twins pay. Derek Jeter homers, A-Rod breaks his postseason RBI slump and CC Sabathia fans eight in New York's 7-2 win in its ALDS opener. The Yanks are playing like they have all year, Danny Knobler says.</description>

      <description>According to the Twins, their 6-5 win over the Tigers in 12 innings is the greatest game ever. OK, but now they face the Yankees in the ALDS in less than 24 hours. Party over? It's just getting started, Danny Knobler says.</description>

      <description>The AL Central title race will last one more day. The Tigers, who beat the White Sox 5-3, will face the Twins, 13-4 winners over the Royals, in a 1-game playoff Tuesday. These teams are on the same page, Danny Knobler says.</description>

      <description>One is the magic number. The Tigers win their second in a row against the Twins, 7-2, setting up a chance to claim the AL Central in Thursday's series finale. Detroit smells division title and is ready to pounce, Danny Knobler says.</description>
