So I was surprised when the FP Gal told me that they came back and won. Well, good for them. Must have pushed three runs across in the bottom of the ninth. Was kind of sorry that I missed it. Then I read the game recap in the Strib, 'Historic Collapse...' read the headline.
It seems that the Twins went on to score six runs in the top of the ninth. The White Sox (somehow) scored six of their own. The game went on for another four innings before the Sox pushed across the winning run in the 13th.
It marked the first time in White Sox history -- a history that spans to 1901 -- that they had entered the ninth inning with a six-run deficit and come back to tie. It was also the first time in major league history that two teams entered the ninth tied, only to have each team score at least six runs to tie the score again.
First time in major league history. You just never know what will happen in the world of baseball.
