A sweep would make the Minnesota Twins 18-14. The Houston Astros would rise to 21-11. One Twins fan hopes this prospective sweep is just a credit to the Astros, rather than a discredit to his team. The Astros have been on a tear recently. They went 9-1 in the their last ten games. Maybe the Twins just caught them at a bad time. This fan hopes that's the case.
