Photos: Twins season ends after defeat by Astros in ALDS Game 4
Fans react with disappointment after Minnesota's loss of Game 4 of the American League Division Series between the Twins and the Houston Astros on Wednesday, Oct. 11, 2023, in Minneapolis.
Wednesday’s game against the Houston Astros was a pivotal moment for the Minnesota Twins in the American League division playoffs — but the Twins’ loss means their historic 2023 season has come to an end.
About 40 minutes before Target Field in Minneapolis opened for Game 4, there were long lines at the major entrances to get in. In one line was Steve Taylor, who drove up from Worthington for the game. He said the last playoff game he went to was back in 1991.
“Twins fans, we always have faith. They were just warming up yesterday. Yeah, they're just, they're just keeping us all on edge,” Taylor said.
