Kirby had one of the great World Series games
EVER
I was upper deck behind home plate...that was the "loudest loud" I have ever heard. Still have my ticket stub. For the record I was at game 7 of 1987 as well.
Man, oh man-to have been right there to witness first-hand one of the most legendary moments in sports history...how cool is that?! In an on-the-field post-game interview with KP, Jim Kaat said the moment the ball went over the wall, the sound level in the Metrodome was measured at 120 decibels-that's like laying your head on a jumbo jet engine at full throttle; practically deafening. Ah, #34. A true legend of the game who's terribly missed to this day.
I was in 223 for that game. I was also at US Bank Stadium for the Minneapolis Miracle.
I was there too. It’s the only World Series game I ever went to. It was so loud in there I had ringing in my ears for several days after. What a great moment!! Been waiting ever since to see the Twins do anything in the postseason
You're one lucky guy.
Didn't realize there was a Scully call of this HR. Thanks for posting.
He was calling the game for CBS radio who had radio rights to baseball at the time
James Kaplan /Vin Scully did radio broadcast for CBS during the World Series
@@paulsonj72 CBS TV IMO made a huge mistake by not making Vin the lead Play-Play Announcer when they had the MLB TV package in the early '90's. So what that Vin was associated with NBC.
And lastly shifting gears. I know some say Kirby does not belong in the HOF. However IMO winning 2 world series, being one of the better defensive outfielders of the 80's and early 90's and most important being to this day probably the most popular player in Twins history when the team nearly moved to Denver in the mid 80's, is more than enough to put him in Cooperstown.
@@americangiant1003 From what I understand he was offered the job(Brent Musburger said he would give it up before he was fired in April 1990) and Vin Scully decided not to take the TV job
@@americangiant1003 Kirby Puckett isn't in the HOF because he was a bit of a perv after baseball from what I remember.
God bless Kirby
Most iconic sports moment of my life!
The first WS I ever watched entirely through, I was 9 years old and a huge Kirby fan.
John Gordon made the best call of this historic home run.
I love John Gordons call, way better than Jack Bucks “tomorrow night” call.
I was born in 91 love glad I am way pass my time and almost 30 years old so man so old to older.
That was one great world series.
I remember when they trotted Leibrandt out to face Puckett, I turned to my brother and said (or rather yelled) "Why are they letting Leibrandt pitch to him? He's going to hit a HR off this guy!"
VCR Time Machine Leibrandt had actually struck him out twice in Game 1 though. None of the problems Leibrandt had in that game were at the hands of the three batters scheduled to hit against him in the 11th. Puckett, Davis, and Mack were a combined 0 for 6 against him in that game.
Puckett and a few of the other Twins had a previous history against Leibrant when he was in KC. In fact, in late September 1987 the Twins faced Leibrant and KC at the Metrodome with a chance to clinch a tie for the AL West Division crown. Leibrant never made it out of the 1st inning as the Twins absolutely smoked him.
I remember when I'm saw Leibrandt, I said to my then wife, now ex........"It's over"
Braves had some good teams especially starting pitching but only one a World Series in 1995.Twins in 87 and 1991
Priceless
I was in right field upper. The most amazing sports night ‘live’ in my life. My ears were plugged for 2 days it was so loud.
Best of times! Kirby was so special and this was a fun team. Long time ago now. Doubt we’ll see anything like it again.
Remember this series like it was yesterday, Twins came back to town down 3 games to 2.
I'd listen to scully recite his abcs over and over
Not to mention, Vinny, a game saving catch
The Twins used up an entire franchise worth of luck in 87 and 91. They’ve had nothing but brutal misfortune in October since then
A year later Liebrandt got tagged by Winfield for the Blue Jays World Series winning runs in game 6 of the 92 series.
from the scully and buck calls you wouldn't know this play was in a world series, or even pivotal to keeping the Twins in it
Go Twins!!
Leibrandt had a not insignificant role in the Twins' '87 championship season. In the final regular season home game, in a start for the Royals, he allowed three first-inning HRs as the Twins clinched a tie for the division title. That was really the first time that fan noise in the dome became an outsized factor. In any case, Bobby Cox was butt nuts to bring him in with the game on the line to pitch to Puckett.
Unfortunately Cox had no other choice, he had basically used up his entire staff outside of Smoltz and Glavine to try and win Game 6.
@@deanladue3151 That's not really true though. The Braves still had the likes of Wohlers, Clancy, and Mercker in the pen.
@@1981lashlarue the score was tied after 9 innings. I think Bobby Cox was thinking that does he take the risk of using those pitchers in another extra inning game knowing that they could possibly lose and head into Game 7 with a spent relief staff. He took a gamble that Liebrant could hold off the Twins for an inning and lost.
enough with the aarp commercials
yes I swear mlb puts them to like 90% play rate
My Dad hated Charlie Leibrandt with a fiery passion during this entire WS.
It’s always a treat to hear Scully.
But, man, did the dude have money on the Braves or something? He actually sounds disappointed here, and that’s not even counting the shade thrown at Liebrandt.
The Buck family should listen to how a real professional calls a game. Jack and Joe are despicable.
Keith Mitchell???
Yep. Keith Mitchell pinch-ran for Sid Bream in the Top of the 11th, got Caught Stealing on the 1st Pitch to Brian Hunter. Mitchell would go to Leftfield & Hunter would move to 1st Base.
Not half as good as Buck’s call!
Well twice isn't half, I'll give you that. Buck's call had all the passion of an announcer calling the walk-off home run of their team's opponent.
