Twins fans are closely following the final week of the baseball season. But after four consecutive 90-loss seasons by the Twins, those same fans are still very much taking a wait-and-see approach when it comes to making a financial commitment to the postseason.

Tickets for two ALDS home games went on sale to the general public on Wednesday after a presale for season-ticket holders.

Twins President Dave St. Peter characterized sales as "very moderate," saying the team has sold 10,000-15,000 seats for each game. That means at least 25,000 remain for both potential playoff games.
