SID's JOTTINGS

• Teddy Bridgewater is telling Vikings teammates that he will definitely be 100 percent for the Lions game and will participate fully in practice on Monday.

• Former Twins outfielder Delmon Young hit a bases-clearing, go-ahead double in the eighth inning of the Orioles' 7-6 victory over the Tigers on Friday. He now has 21 career postseason RBI on 32 hits. The winning run on that double was scored by another former Twins player, shortstop, J.J. Hardy.

• There is only one native Minnesotan on a baseball playoff roster: Angels rookie reliever Mike Morin, who didn't pitch in either of the first two games against the Royals. Morin was born in Andover but went to high school at Shawnee Mission South on the Kansas side of the Kansas City area. Cardinals reliever Pat Neshek went to high school at Park Center, but the former Twins standout was born in Madison, Wis.

• Kansas interim football coach Clint Bowen played defensive back for the Jayhawks from 1991 to '94 under coach Glen Mason, before Mason became coach of the Gophers. "A lot of kids like football," Mason told the Lawrence Journal-World. "But there are really few kids who love football. Clint was one of those guys. When you progress through the ranks the way he did from graduate assistant, you don't make those incremental advances unless you're a good coach."

• This is Kevin Garnett's final year under contract with the Brooklyn Nets, so it might be his last season in the NBA. The former Timberwolves star is entering his 20th pro season, which will tie him with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for the third-most all-time.

• Former Eden Prairie running back Anthony Anderson is at Iowa Western Community College and has rushed for 152 yards on 29 carries but scoring five touchdowns through five games.
