October 5, 2026: The AL Central Playoff



Nick Senzel's one-out homer in the 9th off Minnesota's Jack Filby gave Chicago a 3-2 win over Minnesota and the AL Central title as the White Sox beat the Twins on four consecutive days and 9 straight games in all to pull it out. After the White Sox took a 2-0 lead off rookie sensation Jon Hayes in the 3rd, Yairo Munoz hit a 2-run HR off Tyler Mahle to tie it up. Both Hayes and Mahle were great tonight, going 7 innings and allowing only 2 runs. The Twins had a chance to tie or win in the 9th when they loaded the bases with one out, but Travis Swaggerty hit into a force at home place and Royce Lewis took a called strike 3 from Danny Pena to end the game. The White Sox, who also had an improbable run to a World Series title in 2021, will travel to Anaheim to open the ALDS against the Angels in a few days while the Twins will now have to travel to Baltimore for the AL Wild Card Game.
