The Minnesota Twins will play the New York Yankees tonight in game one of the best of five playoff series at Yankee Stadium.

The Twins' last playoff win was Oct. 5, 2004, in Game 1 of the ALDS at the old Yankee Stadium. But star hitter Nelson Cruz says, "What counts is what we do now. We just have to take care of what we can control. We believe in the team we have. We know what we can do as a team. At the end of the day, it's between the lines where we have to take care of stuff."

So for today's 9:30 Coffee Break, what songs do you want to hear to help root on the Twins?
