The Atlanta Braves had finished last in the National League in 1990. The Minnesota Twins had done the same in the American League 1990. Who would have thought that both last place teams in both leagues would go worst to first in the same year.
This created one of the greatest World Series ever. Seven awesome games. Three extra inning games. The tomahawk chop and the minor controversy for Jane Fonda. Kent Hrbeck pulling Ron Gant the bag on first. chuck Knoblauch and Greg Gagne tricking Lonnie Smith with the phantom double play.
Best moment of all had to be Kirby Puckett's walk off homer in game six....." And we'll see ya tomorrow night!"
Finally it came down to the gutsy pitching of Jack Morris who out dueled John Smoltz for a tenth inning victory. Possible one of the greatest World Series ever won by the might Minnesota Twins! Check out the video.
