Even though the Twins are out if it, there is still playoff baseball. Tonight the Astros are hosting the Rangers for Game 1 of the ALCS. As well as the baseball I'm going to be closely watching the home plate umpires and the fake box on TV. I will closely monitor each game to see if 1 team is getting the benefit of calls over the other. There's no way it can be completely neutral. I've taken my shoes and socks off so I can keep a running tally. Also I'm going to try too read what I can on the Astros and Rangers version of Twins daily and see how they react. I imagine it'll be no different than the reactions I see for every Twins game. I'm betting that Houston will come out clearly ahead on the scorecard.
