This series will be doubly entertaining, especially Saturday. That's because the Twins and A's will play the majors' only scheduled doubleheader this season. Second game is, well, as soon as they finish the first one.
Fans pay one price and get to see two games.
The Twins, of course, weren't around back then, so they'll be donning the jerseys of the old Washington Senators. The A's will look like the old Philadelphia Athletics. This game will fall almost exactly 100 years to the day after the first twin bill ever held in the majors. Some of the best young starting pitchers in the majors will be on display in this series, including the Twins' Eric Milton and Joe Mays and Oakland's Barry Zito and Tim Hudson. The Athletics began in Philadelphia.
