Metrodome Memories

September 13, 1987 at Cleveland Stadium
Twins 7, Indians 3  (77-67)

The Twins extended their AL West division lead to 4 1/2 games with a solid ten inning win over the Indians in their series finale.  More then half of the Twins runs came in the tenth inning alone as they racked four in the frame.  Kirby Puckett singled home the winning run but Gary Gaetti’s two run double provided some much needed insurance.

Bert Blyleven almost saw another nice start go to waste.  He gave up two runs on six hits while Jeff Reardon picked up the win with 2 2/3 innings of shutout relief.  He gave up just one hit and he struck out three.
