The playoffs are here after months of league-stage battle. Multiple teams made it to the dream stage this year, including the 1991 World Series Champions Minnesota Twins. It came after their AL Central win to qualify for the postseason after two years. Notably, the Twins have continued the same performance and won the first game of the AL Wild Card Series, ending their drought of 19 years of winless playoffs. But this is not the only record the former champions have made with this win.

The world has changed over the years. It is now the era of technology, worth $2.7 trillion Apple leads the case with top-class innovations. But the Twins could not become the part because of a cycle of losses since their last win in 2004. However, that has changed with new-age lenses finally capturing that elusive win, giving fans another moment to celebrate as their team rewrote history in Minnesota.

It was a historic day for the worth 1.4 billion Minnesota Twins. They won their first playoff game after 19 years by defeating the 2.1 billion Toronto Blue Jays with a score of 3-1. Third baseman Royce Lewis played well and contributed with two runs and two home runs. With support from pitcher Pablo Lopez, who took three strikeouts, the Twins defended the total for a historic win after their last on October 5, 2004.

Given that they last won before the arrival of the iPhone, it became special from a technological point. Talkin’ Baseball reflected on it and shared, “Twins have their first playoff win of the iPhone era.”

Interestingly, with this, the Twins also ditched history with a modern amendment to it. This is because their win in 2004 synced with the things that have lost relevance in the modern world. When those are recounted, one probably feels old. MLB Fox asked the same question and shared, “RT if this post makes you feel old.”

This was a contrast between losing the past and entering the new age. However, fans chose both and synced them together to show praise for the historic win.
