Did the Twins prove anything by sweeping the feeble Athletics? Patrick Reusse's thoughts

(The Minnesota Star Tribune)

Host Michael Rand and Star Tribune columnist Patrick Reusse look back at the weekend in sports, which included a Twins sweep in Oakland that put Minnesota back on much better footing in the AL Central. The Twins scored 20 runs in the three games, and combined with three Cleveland losses they took a 2 1/2-game lead in the division. But did they prove anything other than that they can beat bad teams?

Plus Reusse was captivated by the Wimbledon men's final on Sunday, while both he and Rand bemoaned the lack of drama in the off-seasons of prominent Minnesota teams.
