The Twins were counting on a win from Santana and when that didn't happen the wind was out of their sails. Now suppose they did get that win. Would their bats have stayed silent? Would the bullpen have choked? It was still an uphill battle for them without Liriano and having Radke hurt but the Twins did a lot of winning during the year including against the A's. We Oakland fans had many years being in the position the Twins were in with a lot of "if only..." lamentations when the series finished.
