So the A's swept the Twins. How come it seems like everyone is saying, either they got lucky, they paid the umps? Are these comments coming from sore loser Twin fans? Give the A's & their fans credit people, they are the first team tosweep a series in these playoffs, yes everyone was counting them out, calling them a joke. . . ha ha guess the joke's on u!! Im not an A's fan but it does upset me that people would rather say they cheated as opposed to ' they played a great series & they deserved to win'.

I am a Twins fan and I will say the A's simply outplayed the Twins in the last three games. The A's came to win, the Twins obviously were looking ahead to the next series against the Yankees and were not ready for the A's.
The only play that I feel was incorrectly called was the "tag" on Torii Hunter in the top of the sixth. This was made irrelevant in the bottom of the seventh when the Twins gave up four runs on just one hit with two outs when they should have been out of the inning.
The Twins shot themselves in the foot and the A's were good enough to take advantage and jump all over the Twins.

I believe that since neither the Oakland A's or Minnesota Twins play in New York, they do not matter for most national media.

well it just happened, you cant say nobody is giving them credit when you havent even heard most of the things people have been saying. It happened like 20 minutes ago let the reporters and anchors get their reports ready lol
