Why is the 1 game playoff in Minnesota?

[A Fleshner Fantasy]

For the one game playoff between the Tigers and Twins, why does Minnesota get home field advantage? The records are obviously the same so it can't be that, so what's the tiebreak?

It's been a coin flip for years but they changed it in the offseason because MN lost the coin flip last year to Chicago despite having the better H2H record. The rules were rightfully changed.
