91 was a great year to be a Minnesota fan. Earlier in the spring The North Stars made an unbelievable run to the Stanley Cup. I went to game 3 of The Cup and game #6 of the World Series in 91. Best sports year ever.
And the Super Bowl for the 1991 season at the Metrodome although played on 1-26-92
@@michaelleroy9281 2017 was special too: The Vikings Miracle win vs Saints, Keenum to Diggs and Hosting the Super Bowl. Yes, would have been AWESOME Vikings Super Bowl in own stadium, but that was Too MUCH to ask for.
I was lucky to be around when the series happened. I was 2 years old!
I saw Game 2 of the series. They won 3-2. Great experience.
FINAL Four , US open Golf and the Super Bowl was also oart of 91 season in Minneapolis
This series just had a little bit of everything. Plus Jack pitching 10 innings which will NEVER be seen again!
I met Hrbek a few times, he's a great guy. He is truly one of us, just a laid back good hearted Minnesotan. I had to EDIT just to say I have also met Dan Gladden several times and he's a good guy. He signed several autographs for me.
Just hearing John Gordon really brings me back. It takes me directly to my childhood, listening on AM radio out in the Minnesota evening on a drive with my father.
Love it love it LOVE IT. We were from MN me and my fam but had moved to Chattanooga just 2 hours north of Atl. This series was so SO SPECIAL down here. Because the Braves had never been good, EVER. First time in World Series and the south was rockin. They LOVED the Braves down here. Me and Dad put our Homer Hankies in the back windows of our car. People would beeb at us and carry on. But all in good fun. And when we won OMG that night that moment was just one of the best moments of my life. Ecstasy. Win TWINS!!
What really impressed me about these guys was their play in the ALCS against the Blue Jays, who were a very tough opponent. They lost Game 2 at home, their first postseason loss ever at the Metrodome, which evened the series at one game apiece. It appeared they were in big trouble because they had to go into Toronto for the next three games. And they won all three games and took the series in five. Totally awesome.
I sometimes wonder how that series would have gone if Joe Carter didn't get hurt.
Who ever said they couldn't win on the road in playoff games Won the AL pennant in Toronto in 1991 in Detroit in 1987
Best World Series ever!! We had a magic carpet ride in '87 with the first world championship for the Twins, and then we had this amazing, tense, thrilling, exceptional World Series against a great team, bringing home the second championship in five years. What a ride!!! Love our Twins!!! 😁💙❤⚾️
the greatest series ever! what a team. i have my list of great twins players and kirby is number one.
the most ironic thing was before Game 1 of the World Series. Knoblauch asks Gagne what it takes to hit a Home Run in the World Series? Then, Gagne (of all people) hit the big 3-run home run in Game 1.
Underrated not unappreciated. GG you were and are the man
Thanks for putting this on. 1991 World Series is the greatest World Series ever because 3 games went to extra innings, 5 games were decided by 1 run and 4 games ended on the last play of the game!
2001 and 2016 World Series Game 7 (Cubs finally win it) are special as well!
only game 5 was a rout
@@jimnfl7134Yeah I suppose. Diamondbacks were the underdogs against the Yankees. Cubs and Indians were playing to end one of the curses!
@@michaelleroy9281I know
I was 19. Remembering watching that game 7. At the end I was almost relieved. I remember being mentally exhausted, bit knew I was watching the best game ever pitched.
I know how you feel!

@@kja9881You’re welcome
Went to a preseason game in 2011 I think Twins vs Braves in Atl at the Ted. Wore one of my 91 World Champ shirts. Ron Gant was at the game broadcasting. Got his attention and showed him my shirt lol. He just smiled.
I'M AN HUGE TWINS FAN. I HAVE A TEAM IN EACH DIVISION TWINS, YANKEES, RANGERS, AL - Dodgers, Reds, Braves, NL.
Excellent play by both teams! Not until the end of this video had I ever seen that Braves players come back on the field to shake some hands. Very respectful and classy!!
Don’t see that very much in baseball. The series could have gone either way. The players and coaches thought they should have cut the trophy down the middle and give each team half!
Around the 18 minute mark, one of the comentators makes a comment after the Gagne homer where the hanky and its a blizzard. To think what was to come on Halloween just crazy.
I was at game 6 i was 6 years old
Lucky
I still have my Homer Hanky hanging up in my house with David West's auto on it.
Vin Scully calling some of the action
Legends
Such a great series, but the Carter game winner was just as good... also 2016 cubs Indians was also just as good if not better... although game 7 in 91... spectacular
Game 6 and 7 91 best ever. Can’t beat it
@@samseely7875Greatest World Series ever!
As a Twins kid, I had no doubt in my mind that Puckett was the greatest player in the league. Gladden had that scrappy spirit, Harper was absolute clutch, and of course Hrbek was the man at first. In '87 we were underdogs but for some reason I knew the Twins would win in '91. This is without mentioning Morris' supreme clutch in game 7.
Funny hearing Gagne's accent since he's from my hometown and I wonder if I still sound like that. He lived not far from me after his retirement. His aunt was my gym teacher in middle school and was surprised I was a Twins fan in MA instead of a Red Sox fan
The greatest world series of NY generation
Dan Gladden is so right! I've been saying it for 30 years, if Gant slides, he's safe. Try running as fast as you can for ten feet, then stop. What happens? Your momentum propels you a few feet further. It's called physics. Newtons first law applies to baseball players also. Gladden is 100% right.
1991 World Series not one of the best it IS the best World Series of all time
Couldn’t agree more. 5 games decided by 1 run, 4 ended on the last play of the game and 3 went to extra innings!
Bar far it will be hard to top
I'm wondering if I wanted to contact Classic Twins either via e-mail or snail mail, what would be the addresses used to send the message?
Braves fan here. Such an insane series. Great teams. In today's rules Braves win Game 7. Now you cannot fake a play the way Knoblauch did. That's what confused Lonnie Smith. Now Lonnie scores and thw Braves win 1-0 in nine innings. Great series nonetheless
Ah yes, the “magic” of pulling a runner of the base and getting away with it.
Hrbek loved smiling and being on camera, but was absolutely atrocious at the plate in both those world series wins.
Puckett
My idol
and hero
"promosm"
Braves fan here. I hate Kent Hrbek till the end of time.
Professional sports are rigged.
Your rigged
Prove that and get back to me
