On October 26, 1991, the fans at the Metrodome in Minneapolis, Minnesota, fidgeted in their seats. It was Game 6 of the World Series, and Minnesota was trailing the Atlanta Braves, three games to two. The Twins needed to win this game to tie the series and go to a final seventh game. In the third inning, that prospect looked promising. The Twins were leading, 2-0, and the Braves were up to bat. Atlanta’s Terry Pendleton waited on first base as Ron Gant stepped up to the plate. Gant swung hard on an inside pitch and caught it right on the meat of the barrel. Crack!.
