Ok, will show my age as I was at a game where Kaat got hit on his face with a wicked bounce and had to be helped/taken off the field. I remember the stitches (from the ball) were visible on his face, from where I sat with my Dad. Kaat, has always been one of my favs, due to his toughness and fielding. I have been sadden that he is not in the Twins Hall of Fame...but I don't think he earned the MLB Hall of Fame, BUT maybe as a broadcaster, as he was always great with his commentary and insights.
