Mason: Top 10 Metrodome Twins Moments

[Othercousin 324]

I saw many games there and could never accept it as a legitimate place for major league baseball to be played. Baseball games were able to be played when it rained and snowed. That's my only positive memory of the Dome.

What a great thread. My two favorite moments:

 

1. Game 6 in 1987 when Kent Hrbeck hit the grand slam. My dad's job connected him to a lot of St. Louis-based companies so our tickets were in the middle of a sea of Cardinals fans.

2. I think it was '91. The Twins were playing the Yankees. I was sitting very near to the CF camera and there was a deep fly ball to right center. Jessie Barfield came over from RF, caught the ball and threw out Chili Davis who was trying to tag from 2nd to 3rd. From my seat, as I faced 3rd base, Barfield was about 30 yards to my 10 o'clock. That is without a doubt my most favorite live-baseball moment because it was so amazing. That throw with my vantage point was unbelievable.
