The final year of the Minnesota Twins in the Metrodome, in 2010 they will move to an outdoor facility named, Target Field.

Some call the Metrodome the baseball park that refused to die, after 162 regular season games the Metrodome was the host of a one game playoff between the Twins and the Detroit Tigers.

For those that saw that game it was one of the best baseball games of the year and took nearly 14 innings to complete.

While the Metrodome would not give up to the end of the season, nor the one game playoff, it eventually was put out to pasture by the power of the New York Yankees.

One game. One playoff spot. The Tigers and Twins will play for the AL Central crown in a game

The Minnesota Twins seem to think that 162 regular-season games aren't enough. The Twins will host the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday in a tiebreaker for the American League Central title and a trip the playoffs.

It is the second straight season that the Twins have needed a 163rd game to finish the season, a first in league history.

The chase for the AL Central championship once again is going to extra innings. Trying to save their seasons, the Detroit Tigers and Minnesota Twins both won Sunday, leaving them all even for the division lead and forcing a one-game tiebreaker.

They'll meet Tuesday at 5 p.m. EDT at the Metrodome in what could be the final baseball game at the Homer Hankie haven.
