Minnesota Twins 7, Oakland Athletics 5
Minnesota committed three errors and gave up five runs in the first two innings, but managed to hold things together. The Twins held Oakland scoreless over the final seven innings, thanks to a phenomenal performance by their bullpen. Minnesota leads the best-of-five series 1-0, and, as any Astros fan can tell you, winning Game One (not something the Astros are familiar with) is HUGE.
