    Jonathan Schoop knew he had the best chance to make history for the Minnesota Twins on Thursday.

    With the Twins recovering from Wednesday night's celebration of their first division title since 2010, Schoop was the only player in Thursday afternoon's lineup with more than 12 of Minnesota's 299 homers this season.

    Sure enough, Schoop was the one who made sure the Twins beat the New York Yankees to 300.

    Schoop hit Minnesota's record 300th home run, Willians Astudillo also went deep and the AL Central champion Twins rallied past the Detroit Tigers 10-4 Thursday to move within one victory of giving the major leagues four 100-win teams for the first time.
