Minnesota Twins Game 10-6-09 

This was an awesome game..something to keep in the record books!! Go Twins!!

Simply amazing!! What a come back for the Twins so late in the season!

by far the best twins game that i've ever seen! its too sad that i was much too young to remember the 87/91 season. go twins!!!!!

That was the best game i have ever been too!

Easily the best Twins game ive ever seen (since i wasnt old enough to see the '87 and '91 World Series

Congrats to the Twins! what a great ballgame!

As a baseball fan myself, that had to be one of the BEST games ever, from the clutch hitting, to what really stood out for me, all the defensive plays on the field, those were some AMAZING plays indeed. The Twins are going to be in tough vs the Yankees, but after this game, you never know what the Twins could do in the playoffs...:-)

AWSOME! AWSOME! AWSOME!

Nice post! I was there and my throat is trashed today. What a roller coaster ride of emotions. I hope got something left in the tank for the F'n Yankees. 1 GAME AT A TIME... you never know!

Red Sox fan here, but I wanted the Twins to win...There will be a little more baseball at the Dome!

Twins won 6 to 5 not 5 to 4. But thanks for the video.

God,just think about what a magical place the Metrodome was at the time this happend.The Vikes were likely 4-0 on the way to a date at the NFC championship game and the Twins had just extended the life of this facility for baseball!Both missions came to tragic ends,but it does not have to be that way this year!The Vikings, 0-2 will have to face off against Detroit,comon man Detroit, we gotta be 1-2 after that one!For the Twins,who knows,except it has been an exciting inaugural season @ Target!

Thank you, BlackNMedBlaze. We Twins fans appreciate your nice comment!

Twins are going all the way next season!!!! Prepare for some outdoor baseball, everyone!!

First, I never said I was a Yankees fan, I just said that I would root for them against the Twins because of that infernal Dome. And "usually find a way to blow it in the end"?!!! What the heck does that mean? While not a Yankees fan, they have won more championships than any other franchise by a long shot. And yes, they did blow it vs the Red Sox, but you get to the playoffs that many times, you're bound to have that happen occasionally.

What a great game! Congrats to the Twins for hanging in there while the Tigers choked the last couple weeks. However, the Twins are about the only team in the league that I would root against vs Yankees. The Metrodome is a joke of a stadium. It would be a travesty for another World Series to be played there. All I can say is, GOOD RIDDANCE!!

Unfortunately, that game was their World Series that year.

Whether the Twins or the White Sox (hopefully my sox) make it to the postseason can we please not have another Game 163???

Gotta hand it to the manager.. Gardenhire does more with less, season in and season out. We don't have the big buck players with cologne ads(Jeter). Twins have good character players and the team as a whole has had to fight from underdog ranking often. I'm not saying they're going for a pennant, but man, taking the division in the 163rd game is a great way to say goodbye to the Metrodome.

What weird padding on the fences? The dome isn't painted white, it's composed of white fiberglass fabric. It's no different losing a ball in the sunlight, then losing a ball in the roof. The dome isn't in perfect condition, but I wouldn't say it's crap. It's versatile, it's used by several other teams for other sports (Vikings,Gophers). Plus, the dome is climate controlled when it's cold outside (which, being in MN and all, is often.) Target Field is nice, just don't forget your blankets.

actually not doing to bad...its 2-2

Oh and wasn't Casilla the one who Anderson made that great catch on in 2008? Hmmm, well he redeemed himself for the Twins. I don't think the tigers will ever win an AL Central title lol

OK, so its not painted white, but your missing the point. Since it has a roof, why should it be white so the ball will blend in with it. Why have the exact same disadvantage as playing outside, just doesn't make sense. Well at least now you will be outdoors, the way the game was meant to be played.

No, I have never been there, but even littlescott007 below said "the dome is a pile of crap". Yes, I'm sure that the atmosphere is great, but I just don't like domes in general... baseball is meant to be played outdoors. And the Metrodome in particular IS a pile of crap. That weird padding on the fences and the top of the dome painted white so that balls constantly get lost up there. I'm very happy that the Twins at least will be playing outdoors now.

ya....the dome is a pile of crap but wait till you and 54,088 fans are all going nuts inside it. theres no other place like it. i would not have wanted to be anywhere else than the metrodome last nite....no voice left today but it was worth it

It's all bout the Yankees haters and lovers of the game of baseball

Well, I'd prefer a regular outdoor field, but at least that gives the option of playing outdoors. I just think the game is meant to be played outdoors on grass. Call me a purist... which is also why I'm generally not a fan of the AL... I hate the DH!!

@av8rcaptain Enjoy. Last time I checked you didn't win the championship on those occasions. With Favré choking to Saints and Twins getting - once again - swept by the mighty Yankees. The Twins are a pathetic bunch of losers when it comes to October play. This past year has shown what you're truly capable of: Wild missing the playoffs, Vikings last placed in NFC North, T-Wolves worst record of NBA and Twins swept for 3rd consecutive time at playoffs and this season 5th in AL Central.
