I literally just said that one three-game regular season series isn't great evidence as to which team is superior. A sample of 100+ games is solid evidence.
In the postseason, teams are forced to run out their best pitchers, as it's win or go home. Not so in the regular season. Success against a team's 3rd, 4th, and 5th starters isn't a great indicator of success against their 1st and 2nd starters.
No, the Yankees have consistently been a superior team to the Twins over the past 20 years. That explains their head-to-head record in the regular season and postseason. One three-game regular season series isn't great evidence as to which team is better.
