Bob Casey was such a good field announcer. He gave a little info about each player before announcing them before the game. God, the Twins miss this man dearly. #34, the center fielder, Kirbyyyyy Puckett.

I was there for games one and two of the playoffs and the World Series! Absolutely the greatest time I've ever had at a sports venue!

The 87 Twins made me believe in magic. Gladden's Grand Slam, incredible!

Watching that again sure brings back a lot of fond memories. Not only of the players and coaches,but of Al Michaels and Tim McCarver .And Bob Casey, and the Metrodome itself....Great stuff!

Not only could Dan Gladden hit, but he also had one of the best mullet/moustache combos in baseball.

I was there in person attending Games 1 and 2. I flew in from the West Coast for the games.. Still crazy my family got WS TIX who allowed me to be there. Thx Mom & Dad!

i remember the t-shirts in 1987 Minnesota Twinkies not just a sponge cake any more lol i will never forget 1987 just increadible

It's funny how almost every time the Cards have a visit to the mound, they play the march of the empire music from Star wars. At the end of game 7 you can barely hear the Star Wars theme music playing as the Twins celebrate on the field.

They had the Metrodome ventilation system working overtime in the postseason

Probably the LOUDEST Series in baseball history.

Dan Gladden and Frank Viola are awesome! I wish the Twins would retire their numbers.

Game starts at 18:30 ⚾

I have known Tim Laudner since I was 16!

In this case 5 days. The Twins clinched the American League Pennant Monday afternoon in Detroit

The field dimensions are insane.

9:00 Tremendous national anthem by Diane Schuur!!

31:17 one of many missed calls by this umpire crew in the 87 series

Top moment of this blowout is when Palmer slips at 1:34:25 and terms ballpark "the homerdome." This leads into a discussion of air-conditioning in the building & its effect upon power hitting. According to the losing manager, re '87 WS, when Twins were at the plate the Metrodome's AC was silent, when Cards were in the box it was blowing full blast.

Critics had a field day with this series - two teams thought to not be that great, playing in a dome, neither team well known outside its' home market, a lot of blowout games, etc. I remember one magazine called it an embarrassment to baseball that a "fifth-place caliber team" (Twins) was in the World Series. But that's sports for you.

It looked like killebrew said "do something we couldn't" into Laudners ear

I liked Al Michaels as a baseball play by play man

18:24 Umpires (Game 1) HP Dave Phillips (AL) (CC) (3rd) 1B Lee Weyer (NL) (4th) 2B Greg Kosc (AL) (1st) 3B John McSherry (NL) (2nd) LF Ken Kaiser (AL) (1st) RF Terry Tata (NL) (2nd)

1:56:45 interesting point. Things would change after this. cause then from 1987-2001, there were only 5 different teams representing the American League in the World Series. Yankees (4-1) Blue Jays (2-0) Twins (2-0) A's (1-2) Indians (0-2)

57:15 - I'm surprised Mccarver doesn't know the balk rule for left-handed pitchers. It's not the leg that cannot cross the rubber but the foot.

did y'all otice that at the 2:00 minute or so timestamp on the video the broadcast is heard through the metrodome's speakers? listen closely when Al gives his introduction.

Twins strikeouts: 20:29 Viola K’s Smith 50:02 Viola K’s Lawless 51:35 Viola K’s Coleman 1:41:28 Viola K’s Lawless again 2:11:43 Viola K’s Oquendo

Lombardozzi was like the George Harrison of the Twins. I'm sure someone will get what I mean. haha.

That Twins team was so weird, how did Bruno have 32 homers but only 85 RBI? Did he have like 20 solo shots?

can you please upload the 1987 world series film there's no place like home

Very Interesting 🤔 That This Was The First World Series Baseball ⚾ Game Played Inside A Domed Stadium 🏟️🚫⚾ Now It Seems 🤔 That Just About Every World Series Baseball Game Is Played Inside A Domed Stadium 🏟️🚫😳😎🤓🙂☺️ I Am Typing This 👇🏻 At 6:02 a.m. , Friday Morning 🌛🌉🌃🌌 , March 8, 2024.

Al Michaels (PBP) Tim McCarver & Jim Palmer (C)

The twins were stacked

22:38 world series rules state

Gladden stood so far back in the batters box. On the line

36 years ago today

Al Michaels and Tim McCarver were such putz's. Their arrogance and derision towards the Twins, the Dome, and Minnesota weren't even slightly hidden. Michaels was even busted on the raw satellite feed ripping the city of Minneapolis on mic during an ad break between innings (Jim Palmer was a contrast in class.) Winning is the best revenge...

They don't need your permission.

Anyone who wants to run against anyone has the right to.

1:03

7th throw to first in a row at 58:18. Starting next year that would not be allowed- on the third pickoff throw, the runner would be automatically awarded a base. If there are runners on second and/or third, the run would be forced home and/or to third base.

That's a pretty weak hitting line up by the St. Louis surprised they made it that far to get to the WS.

Shame the Twins have no honor and cheated

The most forgettable 7 game World Series of all time.
