| The Minnesota Twins easily won the AL West division this year and will be facing the Baltimore Orioles in the AL Championship Series. The Twins had the top pitching in the AL this season and finished 2nd in team batting. 2nd baseman Rod Carew won the AL batting title with a .330 BA. Rightfielder Tony Oliva finished 4th with a .315 BA and hit 24 HR with 115 RBI. And then there's Harmon Killebrew. What a season he had! Harmon drove in 142 runs, tops in the AL, hit 48 HR (3rd in the AL), and scored 108 runs and batting .269. Killebrew is a top candidate for the AL MVP this year. While the Twins have a very dangerous offense, it's their pitching that is most feared. Minnesota led the AL in team pitching with a 2.94 ERA. The staff is headed by starter Dave Boswell's 20-10 record, 2.74 ERA and 192 SO in 275 IP; Jim Perry was 19-10 2.70 ERA, and the top AL reliever Ron Perranoski had 33 saves, 1.99 ERA in 118 IP. |
