The Dome-lucky Minnesota Twins continue for another day.
It has been a wild weekend at the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome in Minneapolis. The Dome came in handy during the recent rains.
The Minnesota Twins won three most-win games as they raced to a tie finish with the Detroit Tigers.
Then the Dome was the scene of the Central Division's 163nd game for the title between Twins and Tigers.
In between, Monday Night Football came to town for a national telecast for the Brett Favre-led Vikings facing the Green Bay Packers. It was a classic Packer-Viking game with the Vikes pulling off a 30-23 win.
