"Isn't it true that this is a battle between two of the worst teams in baseball?" Harry Caray asked Steve Stone that question in the opening segment of this broadcast on WGN, and he was right: the Twins came in with a 56-78 record and the Cubs were 55-82. Still, there's some fun stuff in this one if you're a Twins fan, including a three-run homer from Pat Meares. And in the random department, among the five Twins pitchers in this one are Rich Robertson, Todd Ritchie, and Greg Swindell.
Of note: This was the Twins' first-ever game at Wrigley Field, with 1997 marking the start of interleague play.
