Tapani had the lowest ERA of the Twins' rotation, 2.99, while Glavine led the Braves in wins with 20. In their respective League Championship Series, Tapani had not pitched particularly well having lost Game 2 and giving up five early runs in Game 5. Glavine lost his NLCS starts in Games 1 and 5, giving up a total of six runs. </p><p>Leading off the bottom of the first, Gladden lifted a seemingly routine pop-up toward second base. Atlanta fielders Justice and <a href="/wiki/Mark_Lemke" title="Mark Lemke">Mark Lemke</a> miscommunicated and collided, and the ball fell from Lemke's glove. Gladden reached second on a two-base error. After walking Knoblauch, Glavine induced Puckett to ground to third, where Pendleton stepped on the bag to retire Gladden and threw across to <a href="/wiki/Sid_Bream" title="Sid Bream">Sid Bream</a> to retire Puckett for the double play. But the next batter, Davis, homered off Glavine and gave the Twins an early 2–0 lead. </p><p>The Braves got a run back in the top of the second when Justice singled, was doubled to third by Bream, and then scored on a <a href="/wiki/Sacrifice_fly" title="Sacrifice fly">sacrifice fly</a> by <a href="/wiki/Brian_Hunter_(first_baseman)" title="Brian Hunter (first baseman)">Brian Hunter</a>. Controversy occurred the next inning when <a href="/wiki/Lonnie_Smith_(baseball)" title="Lonnie Smith (baseball)">Lonnie Smith</a> reached first on an error by <a href="/wiki/Scott_Leius" title="Scott Leius">Scott Leius</a>. With two outs, Gant ripped a single to left. Smith, playing for a record fourth team in World Series play, tried to beat the throw to third from Gladden, which was wild and missed third baseman Leius. </p><p>The play was not over, however, as Gant was hung up between first and second as he tried to advance on the errant throw. Tapani, backing up the play, fielded the ball and threw back toward first. Gant tried to get back standing up, but Hrbek fielded the ball just before he got to the base and moved to tag Gant out. Somehow, Hrbek's arm and Gant's leg got tangled and the two players stumbled backward. First base umpire Drew Coble called Gant out on the play, a furious Gant and first base coach Pat Corrales argued, and CBS analyst <a href="/wiki/Tim_McCarver" title="Tim McCarver">Tim McCarver</a> agreed, that Hrbek had pulled Gant off of the base. Hrbek claimed after the game that Gant had pushed him, and Gant later said that Hrbek had grabbed his leg and fell backward, taking him with him. Coble would later explain his reasoning behind the call for MLB's official video recap of the series. He said that when Gant had come back toward first, he had come in off-balance and was falling over as Hrbek applied the tag; Coble said that based on that, he determined that Gant's own momentum had caused him to leave the base and called him out after Hrbek kept the tag on him.<sup id="cite_ref-19" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-19"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>19<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> <a href="/wiki/Tom_Kelly_(baseball)" title="Tom Kelly (baseball)">Tom Kelly</a> said that Gant would not have had a problem if he had slid into the bag.<sup id="cite_ref-20" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-20"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>20<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> This call was ranked as one of the top ten worst baseball calls by both ESPN and Sports Illustrated.<sup id="cite_ref-21" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-21"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-22" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-22"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>22<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Hrbek became a hated figure in Atlanta, was lustily booed, and even received a death threat.<sup id="cite_ref-23" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-23"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>23<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In 2011, the Twins celebrated the 20th anniversary of the controversial play by commissioning a bobblehead doll of Hrbek and Gant entangled, a promotion that proved popular with Twins fans.<sup id="cite_ref-24" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-24"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>24<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The Braves tied the game in the fifth when Olson doubled, advanced to third on a groundout by Lemke, and came home on a sacrifice fly by <a href="/wiki/Rafael_Belliard" title="Rafael Belliard">Rafael Belliard</a>.

But Tapani got Gant out on a foul popup and Justice on a fly out to end the threat. Kelly remembered seeing a tape of the game that showed Glavine in disbelief that Atlanta was unable to score, and felt that Glavine's emotions took over.

Erickson made one start in the ALCS, taking a no decision in Game 3. </p><p>Going into the three games in Atlanta, Twins manager <a href="/wiki/Tom_Kelly_(baseball)" title="Tom Kelly (baseball)">Tom Kelly</a> said that managing without the designated-hitter rule was "right up there with rocket science". </p><p>In a play reminiscent of Game 2, <a href="/wiki/Dan_Gladden" title="Dan Gladden">Dan Gladden</a> led off the game by reaching on a fielding mistake. He lifted a fly ball toward right-center field where <a href="/wiki/David_Justice" title="David Justice">David Justice</a> and <a href="/wiki/Ron_Gant" title="Ron Gant">Ron Gant</a> both went to catch it, but neither called for the ball and it dropped between them. Gladden reached third standing up, and <a href="/wiki/Chuck_Knoblauch" title="Chuck Knoblauch">Chuck Knoblauch</a> subsequently flied out to allow him to score the first run of the game and end Avery's scoreless innings streak. </p><p>The Braves got the run back in the second when Greg Olson scored on <a href="/wiki/Rafael_Belliard" title="Rafael Belliard">Rafael Belliard</a>'s single. Justice led off the fourth with his first World Series home run, and the Braves led for the first time in the Series, 2–1. In the fifth, the Braves scored again when <a href="/wiki/Lonnie_Smith_(baseball)" title="Lonnie Smith (baseball)">Lonnie Smith</a> homered. Erickson was pulled from the game after allowing <a href="/wiki/Terry_Pendleton" title="Terry Pendleton">Terry Pendleton</a> and Justice to reach base, on a walk and an error by Knoblauch on a ground ball that should have ended the inning. <a href="/wiki/David_West_(baseball)" title="David West (baseball)">David West</a> entered the game and walked two consecutive batters, forcing home an unearned run (charged to Erickson) and leaving the bases loaded for <a href="/wiki/Terry_Leach" title="Terry Leach">Terry Leach</a>, who struck out <a href="/wiki/Mark_Lemke" title="Mark Lemke">Mark Lemke</a> to end the inning. With the score 4–1, the Braves looked to close it out. As it turned out, the game was just beginning. </p><p>After the run that resulted from the first-inning misplay between Gant and Justice, Avery had been perfect for five innings, recording 15 consecutive outs. But then he seemed to tire a bit. <a href="/wiki/Kirby_Puckett" title="Kirby Puckett">Kirby Puckett</a> homered in the seventh to make it 4–2, one inning after two Twins hits and two other fly outs to the warning track. Atlanta manager <a href="/wiki/Bobby_Cox" title="Bobby Cox">Bobby Cox</a> reluctantly sent Avery out for the eighth inning. The first batter he faced was <a href="/wiki/Brian_Harper" title="Brian Harper">Brian Harper</a>, pinch hitting for his replacement catcher <a href="/wiki/Junior_Ortiz" title="Junior Ortiz">Junior Ortiz</a> (Harper never started games that season when Erickson pitched, as he preferred to pitch to Ortiz). After he reached on an error Avery went to the showers in favor of the Braves' regular-season closer, <a href="/wiki/Alejandro_Pe%C3%B1a" title="Alejandro Peña">Alejandro Peña</a>. Peña had been 13 for 13 in save opportunities since joining the Braves in a late-season trade with the <a href="/wiki/New_York_Mets" title="New York Mets">Mets</a>, but he had not pitched since the previous Wednesday. <a href="/wiki/Chili_Davis" title="Chili Davis">Chili Davis</a>, pinch hitting for pitcher <a href="/wiki/Steve_Bedrosian" title="Steve Bedrosian">Steve Bedrosian</a>, took advantage of this and hit a home run to tie the game. </p><p>The game remained tied into extra innings, and a series of substitutions and double switches turned the game on its ear. Kelly exhausted the remaining players on his bench by the eleventh inning, and entering the twelfth he was down to only three remaining players, all pitchers. Of those three, <a href="/wiki/Rick_Aguilera" title="Rick Aguilera">Rick Aguilera</a> was the only one who was available to play; the other two were his other two starters, <a href="/wiki/Jack_Morris" title="Jack Morris">Jack Morris</a> and <a href="/wiki/Kevin_Tapani" title="Kevin Tapani">Kevin Tapani</a>. </p><p>The top of the twelfth began with <a href="/wiki/Mark_Wohlers" title="Mark Wohlers">Mark Wohlers</a> on the mound for the Braves. After he retired <a href="/wiki/Randy_Bush" title="Randy Bush">Randy Bush</a> on a fly out, Gladden reached on a single. Knoblauch followed with a ground ball to second that would likely have resulted in a double play, but Lemke misplayed it and it rolled between his legs. Gladden was able to advance to third on the error, and with the go-ahead run in scoring position, Braves manager <a href="/wiki/Bobby_Cox" title="Bobby Cox">Bobby Cox</a> brought in <a href="/wiki/Kent_Mercker" title="Kent Mercker">Kent Mercker</a> to pitch. </p><p>While all of this was going on, Aguilera was warming up in the Twins’ bullpen. On the CBS television broadcast, <a href="/wiki/Tim_McCarver" title="Tim McCarver">Tim McCarver</a> noted that the pitcher’s spot was due in two batters. <a href="/wiki/Kent_Hrbek" title="Kent Hrbek">Kent Hrbek</a> was the batter, and McCarver theorized that if Mercker retired Hrbek, Cox would elect to walk the on deck hitter, <a href="/wiki/Kirby_Puckett" title="Kirby Puckett">Kirby Puckett</a>, if Knoblauch and Gladden were still on base, and force Kelly to decide to use Aguilera as a pinch hitter for pitcher <a href="/wiki/Mark_Guthrie" title="Mark Guthrie">Mark Guthrie</a>. </p><p>On the fourth pitch of the at bat, with Knoblauch running to avoid a potential double play, Hrbek struck out looking. Cox brought in <a href="/wiki/Jim_Clancy_(baseball)" title="Jim Clancy (baseball)">Jim Clancy</a> to pitch to Puckett and, just as McCarver had thought, put him on intentionally to load the bases. With his hand forced, Kelly summoned Aguilera from the bullpen to pinch hit. Aguilera had some previous success as a hitter, and had in fact come up as an infielder, but he had not had any at bats since he played with the <a href="/wiki/New_York_Mets" title="New York Mets">New York Mets</a> in 1989. On the third pitch of the at-bat he flied out to deep center field, leaving the bases loaded and the game deadlocked. Kelly said in an interview that if the game had gone on beyond two more innings—Aguilera’s usual limit—since he had used up all his relief pitchers and needed to avoid tiring Aguilera out or throwing his rotation into disarray by using one of his starters in relief, his next step would likely have been to put left fielder Gladden (who had previously made emergency pitching appearances on at least two occasions) on the mound and Aguilera in the outfield. </p><p>In the bottom of the 12th, Aguilera remained in the game to pitch and quickly got the first out on one pitch. But then Justice singled to right and after <a href="/wiki/Brian_Hunter_(first_baseman)" title="Brian Hunter (first baseman)">Brian Hunter</a> popped out, Justice stole second on an 0–2 pitch to Olson. With two outs and first base open and the normally light-hitting Lemke on deck, Aguilera, wary of Olson's stealth status as one of the Braves' best clutch hitters (despite an overall average of only .241, he had batted .373 with two outs and runners in scoring position during the season), pitched him very carefully after the stolen base and walked him. Lemke (who had nearly caused a major Twins rally with his fielding error in the top of the inning) now entered the pantheon of World Series heroes by hitting a single to left that enabled Justice to just beat the throw home from Gladden. His score gave the Braves a 5–4 win and cut the Twins' lead in the Series to two games to one. Clancy took the win while Aguilera received the loss. </p><p>The game lasted a then record four hours, four minutes, broken in 2005 in Game 3 of the <a href="/wiki/2005_World_Series" title="2005 World Series">2005 World Series</a>, which ran five hours, 41 minutes. It was the first of four games in this Series to end with the winning team scoring the deciding run in the ninth inning or later.

Morris was looking to record his second victory of the series while Smoltz was making his first start. Smoltz had won both of his starts against the Pirates in the NLCS, including in the seventh and deciding game in Pittsburgh where he pitched a complete game shutout. </p><p>As was the custom in the first three games, the Twins scored first. In the second inning, <a href="/wiki/Brian_Harper" title="Brian Harper">Brian Harper</a> scored on <a href="/wiki/Mike_Pagliarulo" title="Mike Pagliarulo">Mike Pagliarulo</a>'s double. The Braves tied it in the third when <a href="/wiki/Terry_Pendleton" title="Terry Pendleton">Terry Pendleton</a> hit his first postseason home run. </p><p>The Braves appeared ready to take a lead in the fifth when <a href="/wiki/Lonnie_Smith_(baseball)" title="Lonnie Smith (baseball)">Lonnie Smith</a> singled and stole second. Pendleton then followed with a deep fly ball to center field. As <a href="/wiki/Kirby_Puckett" title="Kirby Puckett">Kirby Puckett</a> went back to field it, Smith watched from approximately halfway down the baseline to see where the ball was going to land. Puckett got under the ball and Smith went back to tag up, since the fly ball was deep enough for him to advance to third if Puckett caught it. </p><p>As Puckett reached up to try and catch the ball, it nicked the top of his glove and dropped behind him. Since Smith had gone to tag up instead of staying where he had been, he now had to start running from a dead stop and was unable to gain much momentum as the relay throw reached the infield. Smith was waved around third anyway, with the relay reaching Harper on the bounce just before Smith got to the plate. Smith’s only recourse was to try to dislodge the ball from Harper, doing so by throwing himself at Harper and bowling him over. Despite the violent collision, Harper held onto the ball and Smith was out. </p><p>With Pendleton on third now and Morris having walked <a href="/wiki/Ron_Gant" title="Ron Gant">Ron Gant</a>, <a href="/wiki/David_Justice" title="David Justice">David Justice</a> stood in. Morris threw a pitch that got past Harper, but he was able to recover and tag Pendleton out as he tried to score. The game remained tied through the sixth. </p><p>In the top of the seventh, Pagliarulo homered to give the Twins the lead, 2–1. With a lead and a bullpen that had allowed only one earned run in the entire post-season, the Twins opted to go for more runs by pinch hitting for Morris and removing him after six innings. He had been effective, allowing only the one run, but had a high pitch count. The move backfired as Braves got the run back in the bottom of the inning when Smith made up for his baserunning gaffe and homered off Twins reliever <a href="/wiki/Carl_Willis" title="Carl Willis">Carl Willis</a> to tie the game. </p><p>The game entered the bottom of the ninth still tied at two. With one out and <a href="/wiki/Mark_Guthrie" title="Mark Guthrie">Mark Guthrie</a> pitching, <a href="/wiki/Mark_Lemke" title="Mark Lemke">Mark Lemke</a> drilled a triple off the left-center field wall. <a href="/wiki/Jeff_Blauser" title="Jeff Blauser">Jeff Blauser</a> was walked intentionally to set up a possible double play to force extra innings. </p><p>With the pitchers’ spot due up after Blauser, <a href="/wiki/Bobby_Cox" title="Bobby Cox">Bobby Cox</a> sent <a href="/wiki/Francisco_Cabrera_(baseball)" title="Francisco Cabrera (baseball)">Francisco Cabrera</a> to the on-deck circle. Once Blauser was given his intentional walk, <a href="/wiki/Tom_Kelly_(baseball)" title="Tom Kelly (baseball)">Tom Kelly</a> brought in former Brave <a href="/wiki/Steve_Bedrosian" title="Steve Bedrosian">Steve Bedrosian</a> to pitch. Cabrera, who had been announced as the next batter, was called back to the dugout and veteran minor leaguer <a href="/wiki/Jerry_Willard" title="Jerry Willard">Jerry Willard</a> was sent in to pinch hit. Willard hit a short fly ball to <a href="/wiki/Shane_Mack_(baseball)" title="Shane Mack (baseball)">Shane Mack</a> in right field. Lemke tagged and broke for the plate as soon as Mack caught the ball. Mack’s throw beat Lemke to the plate, but he slid around Harper’s tag attempt and home plate umpire <a href="/wiki/Terry_Tata" title="Terry Tata">Terry Tata</a> called him safe despite the objections of both Harper and Bedrosian. </p><p>Tim McCarver explained on the CBS broadcast the specific reason Lemke was called safe. Since the play at the plate was not a force play, Harper needed to tag Lemke with the ball, whether it was in his hand or in his glove. While Harper did have the ball in his possession and had made contact with Lemke, he did not do so with his catcher’s mitt—the contact was up his arm near the elbow and thus, Tata ruled that he had missed the tag. It was not uncommon at the time for umpires to call a runner out when the ball beat them to the plate, regardless of the time or location of the tag, but Tata held to the letter of the law. McCarver later narrated the play as "An arm's length; an elbows width: the subtle difference between out...and safe." The win tied the Series at two games apiece and ensured a return to Minnesota. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Game_5">Game 5</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=1991_World_Series&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: Game 5"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <table class="wikitable" style="text-align:center;"> <caption style="font-size:90%">Thursday, October 24, 1991 8:26<span class="nowrap"> </span>pm (EDT) at <span class="nowrap">Atlanta–Fulton County Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia 71 °F (22 °C), partly cloudy</span> </caption> <tbody><tr> <th style="border-right-width:2px; width:170px">Team</th> <th style="width:25px;">1</th> <th style="width:25px;">2</th> <th style="width:25px;">3</th> <th style="width:25px;">4</th> <th style="width:25px;">5</th> <th style="width:25px;">6</th> <th style="width:25px;">7</th> <th style="width:25px;">8</th> <th style="width:25px;">9</th> <th style="width:25px;border-left-width:2px"><a href="/wiki/Run_(baseball)" title="Run (baseball)">R</a></th> <th style="width:25px;"><a href="/wiki/Hit_(baseball)" title="Hit (baseball)">H</a></th> <th style="width:25px;"><a href="/wiki/Error_(baseball)" title="Error (baseball)">E</a> </th></tr> <tr> <td style="border-right-width:2px; text-align:left;">Minnesota</td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>3</td> <td>0</td> <td>1</td> <td>1</td> <td style="border-left-width:2px;font-weight:bold;">5</td> <td style="font-weight:bold;">7</td> <td style="font-weight:bold;">1 </td></tr> <tr> <td style="border-right-width:2px; text-align:left;"><b>Atlanta</b></td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>4</td> <td>1</td> <td>0</td> <td>6</td> <td>3</td> <td>X</td> <td style="border-left-width:2px;font-weight:bold;">14</td> <td style="font-weight:bold;">17</td> <td style="font-weight:bold;">1 </td></tr> <tr style="font-size:90%;"> <td style="text-align:left;" colspan="34"><b><a href="/wiki/Win%E2%80%93loss_record_(pitching)#Winning_pitcher" title="Win–loss record (pitching)">WP</a>:</b> <a href="/wiki/Tom_Glavine" title="Tom Glavine">Tom Glavine</a> (1–1)   <b><a href="/wiki/Win%E2%80%93loss_record_(pitching)#Losing_pitcher" title="Win–loss record (pitching)">LP</a>:</b> <a href="/wiki/Kevin_Tapani" title="Kevin Tapani">Kevin Tapani</a> (1–1)<br /><b><a href="/wiki/Home_run" title="Home run">Home runs</a>:</b><br />MIN: None<br />ATL: <a href="/wiki/David_Justice" title="David Justice">David Justice</a> (2), <a href="/wiki/Lonnie_Smith_(baseball)" title="Lonnie Smith (baseball)">Lonnie Smith</a> (3), <a href="/wiki/Brian_Hunter_(first_baseman)" title="Brian Hunter (first baseman)">Brian Hunter</a> (1) </td></tr></tbody></table> <p>In Game 5, <a href="/wiki/Tom_Glavine" title="Tom Glavine">Tom Glavine</a> faced <a href="/wiki/Kevin_Tapani" title="Kevin Tapani">Kevin Tapani</a> in a Game 2 rematch. Unlike the previous game, neither pitcher had his best stuff this time around, with Tapani falling apart in the 4th and Glavine in the 6th. Whereas in their first matchup the game was relatively close, Game 5 would be the biggest offensive outburst of the series for either team. But despite the score, the game was kept close until after the 7th inning stretch. </p><p>For three innings, the pitchers matched zeroes. In the fourth, <a href="/wiki/Ron_Gant" title="Ron Gant">Ron Gant</a> singled to left and <a href="/wiki/David_Justice" title="David Justice">David Justice</a> homered off the top of the left-field wall for a 2–0 Braves lead. <a href="/wiki/Sid_Bream" title="Sid Bream">Sid Bream</a> followed up with a walk, and <a href="/wiki/Greg_Olson_(baseball)" title="Greg Olson (baseball)">Greg Olson</a> then hit what appeared to be a double play grounder to second. But the ball hit Bream's leg, resulting in Bream being called out for runner interference and Olson safe at first. <a href="/wiki/Mark_Lemke" title="Mark Lemke">Mark Lemke</a>, the hero of Games 3 and 4, drilled a triple that scored Olson, and then scored on a double by <a href="/wiki/Rafael_Belliard" title="Rafael Belliard">Rafael Belliard</a> At this point, the Braves led 4–0, their biggest lead in any game in the Series. </p><p>In the fifth, <a href="/wiki/Terry_Pendleton" title="Terry Pendleton">Terry Pendleton</a> and Gant singled, with Pendleton moving to third. Then Justice hit into a fielder's choice that scored Pendleton and gave the Braves a 5–0 lead. With Glavine working on a two-hitter, the game seemed in hand for the Braves. But Glavine's control deserted him in the sixth inning and he was pulled from the game. <a href="/wiki/Chuck_Knoblauch" title="Chuck Knoblauch">Chuck Knoblauch</a> reached on a one-out walk and then went to third on a single by <a href="/wiki/Kirby_Puckett" title="Kirby Puckett">Kirby Puckett</a>.

Brian Hunter singled to score Gant and put two on with nobody out and an 8–3 Braves lead. After Olson popped out, Lemke hit his third triple in his last four at bats, driving home Justice and Hunter, and scoring when Belliard singled to center. The Braves ended the seventh with an 11–3 lead and the announcers began talking about the teams' chances in Game 6. </p><p>But there were still two innings left. Davis, playing this game in right field in place of Mack, who was 0–for–15, singled. He moved to second on a ground out and scored on <a href="/wiki/Al_Newman" title="Al Newman">Al Newman</a>'s triple. In the bottom of the eighth, Pendleton doubled and Gant tripled, scoring Pendleton.

After the reshuffling of the Braves' rotation following Game 1, <a href="/wiki/Steve_Avery_(baseball)" title="Steve Avery (baseball)">Steve Avery</a> started for Atlanta on three days' rest. The Twins kept their three-man rotation, with <a href="/wiki/Scott_Erickson" title="Scott Erickson">Scott Erickson</a>, who had been batted around in Game 3, getting the start for Minnesota. </p><p>In the top of the first, the Braves got two runners on, but stranded them. In the bottom of the first, <a href="/wiki/Chuck_Knoblauch" title="Chuck Knoblauch">Chuck Knoblauch</a> singled with one out and then <a href="/wiki/Kirby_Puckett" title="Kirby Puckett">Kirby Puckett</a> strode to the plate looking to break out of the slump he had been in for most of the series. He tripled to left field, scoring Knoblauch, his first big play of the game. </p><p>After retiring <a href="/wiki/Chili_Davis" title="Chili Davis">Chili Davis</a> for the second out of the inning, Avery faced another slump-ridden batter in <a href="/wiki/Shane_Mack_(baseball)" title="Shane Mack (baseball)">Shane Mack</a>, who was hitless so far in the series. Mack hit a broken-bat single to score Puckett. <a href="/wiki/Scott_Leius" title="Scott Leius">Scott Leius</a> followed with a single, advancing Mack to third, but Avery escaped further damage by retiring <a href="/wiki/Kent_Hrbek" title="Kent Hrbek">Kent Hrbek</a> to keep the game at 2-0. </p><p>In the top of the third, the Braves hit Erickson hard, but failed to score. After <a href="/wiki/Terry_Pendleton" title="Terry Pendleton">Terry Pendleton</a> reached with one out, <a href="/wiki/Ron_Gant" title="Ron Gant">Ron Gant</a> drove a pitch deep to left field. Puckett, giving chase, tracked the ball down and then leaped to snare it before it could hit the 13-foot <a href="/wiki/Plexiglas" class="mw-redirect" title="Plexiglas">Plexiglas</a> barrier over the left field wall. Pendleton, who had reached second and was trying to advance to third, was forced to turn around and barely beat Puckett’s throw back to first. </p><p>In the fourth, the Twins appeared ready to increase their lead, putting runners at second and third with one out. But Avery buckled down and retired the side to keep the game close. Another critical play occurred in the fifth when <a href="/wiki/Rafael_Belliard" title="Rafael Belliard">Rafael Belliard</a> kept the Twins from completing a double play with a fierce slide. His hustle enabled <a href="/wiki/Lonnie_Smith_(baseball)" title="Lonnie Smith (baseball)">Lonnie Smith</a> to reach first. This became important when Pendleton golfed Erickson's next pitch into the seats, his second World Series home run, to tie the game at two. With two outs, Justice lifted what appeared to be a go-ahead home run for the Braves to right, but at the last instant, the ball hooked foul by about two feet. Erickson retired Justice and the Twins came to bat with the score tied. </p><p><a href="/wiki/Dan_Gladden" title="Dan Gladden">Dan Gladden</a> responded with a walk and a steal of second. He moved to third on Knoblauch's lineout to right and scored on Puckett's center field sacrifice fly. The Twins led 3–2. Avery was relieved after the inning. The Twins kept their one-run lead into the seventh. <a href="/wiki/Mark_Lemke" title="Mark Lemke">Mark Lemke</a> singled to center, knocking Erickson out of the game, and went to second on a wild pitch by reliever <a href="/wiki/Mark_Guthrie" title="Mark Guthrie">Mark Guthrie</a>. After a strikeout, Smith walked and Pendleton reached on an infield single. The Braves now had the bases loaded and one out as CBS commentator Jack Buck said the Series was now on the line. Gant hit what seemed to be a sure double play ground ball off <a href="/wiki/Carl_Willis" title="Carl Willis">Carl Willis</a>. The ground ball retired Pendleton, but the speedy Gant beat the relay to first and Lemke scored the tying run, charged to Erickson. Willis got out of the jam by striking out Justice to end the inning with the score tied at three. Willis was charged with a blown save, but he pitched two more scoreless innings, the eighth and ninth. Atlanta kept the Twins off the scoreboard, with left-handed specialist <a href="/wiki/Mike_Stanton_(left-handed_pitcher)" title="Mike Stanton (left-handed pitcher)">Mike Stanton</a> pitching the seventh and eighth innings and struggling closer <a href="/wiki/Alejandro_Pe%C3%B1a" title="Alejandro Peña">Alejandro Peña</a> pitching the ninth and tenth innings. </p><p>The game remained tied at three until the 11th. <a href="/wiki/Bobby_Cox" title="Bobby Cox">Bobby Cox</a> sent Game 1 starter <a href="/wiki/Charlie_Leibrandt" title="Charlie Leibrandt">Charlie Leibrandt</a> in a highly unfamiliar role – as a reliever late in the extra-inning game, and very late at night to the mound to face Puckett.

Going into the game, this Series had been regarded as one of the greatest ever. Game 7 reinforced that point. A symbolic moment for this Series occurred on the first at-bat when Braves leadoff hitter <a href="/wiki/Lonnie_Smith_(baseball)" title="Lonnie Smith (baseball)">Lonnie Smith</a> shook hands with Twins catcher <a href="/wiki/Brian_Harper" title="Brian Harper">Brian Harper</a> just before stepping up to the plate.<sup id="cite_ref-35" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-35"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>35<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> This was seen as a gesture of the respect the teams had for each other, though Morris later admitted that in the competitive heat of the moment he had not been happy with his catcher about it, even though Smith extended his hand initially. </p><p>The Twins were the first team to get a runner in scoring position, as singles by <a href="/wiki/Brian_Harper" title="Brian Harper">Brian Harper</a> and <a href="/wiki/Shane_Mack_(baseball)" title="Shane Mack (baseball)">Shane Mack</a> with two out set <a href="/wiki/Mike_Pagliarulo" title="Mike Pagliarulo">Mike Pagliarulo</a> up with a chance to drive in a run. Smoltz got him to ground out, however, and nothing came of the opportunity. The Braves were then able to get two baserunners of their own in their next at bat, as a single by <a href="/wiki/Rafael_Belliard" title="Rafael Belliard">Rafael Belliard</a>, a passed ball, and a walk to Smith put runners on with only one out in the top of the third inning. Morris retired <a href="/wiki/Terry_Pendleton" title="Terry Pendleton">Terry Pendleton</a> and <a href="/wiki/Ron_Gant" title="Ron Gant">Ron Gant</a> to end the threat. The Twins would get a runner to third the next inning, as <a href="/wiki/Dan_Gladden" title="Dan Gladden">Dan Gladden</a> doubled and advanced to third on a line out by <a href="/wiki/Chuck_Knoblauch" title="Chuck Knoblauch">Chuck Knoblauch</a>, but Smoltz struck <a href="/wiki/Kirby_Puckett" title="Kirby Puckett">Kirby Puckett</a> out to keep the score at zero. </p><p>The Braves had another chance in their half of the fifth, as <a href="/wiki/Mark_Lemke" title="Mark Lemke">Mark Lemke</a> recorded a single. Belliard followed by laying down a sacrifice bunt to advance him, and Smith beat out a drag bunt attempt to put runners on the corners with only one out. Morris, as he had before, managed to get out of trouble by getting Pendleton to pop up for the second out and striking Gant out to end the inning. Neither team would mount a threat again for several innings, with Gladden and Puckett the only players to reach base. </p><p>The Braves started their half of the eighth with a Smith single. Pendleton stood in next and on a 1-2 pitch, he swung and, according to Morris, missed the next pitch. Pendleton appealed, maintaining he had foul tipped the ball; umpire <a href="/wiki/Terry_Tata" title="Terry Tata">Terry Tata</a> ruled that had been the case and the at bat continued. What followed turned out to be the turning point for the Braves in the series.<sup id="cite_ref-Game7mm25_36-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Game7mm25-36"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>36<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Braves manager <a href="/wiki/Bobby_Cox" title="Bobby Cox">Bobby Cox</a> was aggressive, calling for a hit and run. Pendleton executed his part with a deep fly to center field. Smith rounded second, but then momentarily stopped running. Knoblauch and his fellow middle infielder Greg Gagne had set up a decoy system designed to confuse the baserunner, feigning going for a double play. Smith, meanwhile, maintained that he did not fall for the decoy but instead lost sight of the ball. Regardless of what really happened, Smith could have easily scored had he simply kept running, but only reached third, while Pendleton reached second on a double. </p><p><a href="/wiki/Ron_Gant" title="Ron Gant">Ron Gant</a> followed with a groundout to <a href="/wiki/Kent_Hrbek" title="Kent Hrbek">Kent Hrbek</a> at first for the first out. The next batter was <a href="/wiki/David_Justice" title="David Justice">David Justice</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Tom_Kelly_(baseball)" title="Tom Kelly (baseball)">Tom Kelly</a> emerged from the dugout to talk to his ace. Morris was not pleased to see his manager, as he thought that he was coming to the mound to remove him from the game. Instead, he was there to discuss strategy. Justice was a significant enough power threat that Kelly thought of intentionally walking Justice and pitching instead to <a href="/wiki/Sid_Bream" title="Sid Bream">Sid Bream</a>, who had been struggling throughout the series with only three hits. </p><p>Morris agreed with Kelly, and Justice was walked to load the bases for Bream. This proved to be the last in the series of events that ended up costing the Braves, as Morris induced a ground ball up the first base line. First baseman <a href="/wiki/Kent_Hrbek" title="Kent Hrbek">Kent Hrbek</a> threw home to retire Smith, whose gaffe had set the series in motion. Harper then fired back to Hrbek to retire Bream, who had been playing with chronic knee injuries (five previous surgeries and playing with a large brace on one knee still) and as a result was regarded as one of the slowest baserunners in the league. The rare 3-2-3 double play ended the inning, and the Braves did not have a runner reach base for the remainder of the game. </p><p>In the bottom of the eighth, <a href="/wiki/Randy_Bush" title="Randy Bush">Randy Bush</a> pinch-hit for Gagne to lead off for the Twins, and singled off Smoltz, then was removed in favor of the faster <a href="/wiki/Al_Newman" title="Al Newman">Al Newman</a> to pinch-run. Smoltz then retired Gladden but gave up a single to Knoblauch, his eighth hit of the Series. With one out, runners on the corners, and Puckett coming to the plate, Cox elected to remove Smoltz from the game. </p><p><a href="/wiki/Mike_Stanton_(left-handed_pitcher)" title="Mike Stanton (left-handed pitcher)">Mike Stanton</a> entered and was ordered to intentionally walk Puckett to load the bases—an unusual decision as managers usually only issue intentional walks when first base is open, not in circumstances where the walk will advance a runner into scoring position. But in this case, the next batter was Hrbek, who, though normally a power threat, had not had a hit since Game 3, and whom Stanton had struck out three times in a row (a reason the Braves used Stanton, a left-handed specialist). This time, Stanton got Hrbek to hit a relatively soft line drive to Lemke, who then stepped on second to double-up Knoblauch. The game continued with no score. </p><p>The Braves went down in order in the top of the ninth, as Morris retired Brian Hunter, Greg Olson, and Lemke. The Twins, with a chance to win the game in their final at-bat, led off with a <a href="/wiki/Chili_Davis" title="Chili Davis">Chili Davis</a> single. After <a href="/wiki/Jarvis_Brown" title="Jarvis Brown">Jarvis Brown</a> came in to run for Davis, Harper attempted to move him over with a bunt down the first base line. Stanton misstepped coming to play the bunt, allowing Harper to reach base without a play. To make matters worse for Atlanta, Stanton's misstep caused him to strain a muscle in his back, and he had to be removed from the game. Cox was forced to bring in <a href="/wiki/Alejandro_Pe%C3%B1a" title="Alejandro Peña">Alejandro Peña</a> to pitch to Shane Mack. Despite his earlier struggles, Peña induced a ground ball double play from Mack to record the first two outs. He then gave <a href="/wiki/Mike_Pagliarulo" title="Mike Pagliarulo">Mike Pagliarulo</a> an intentional walk and struck out pinch hitter <a href="/wiki/Paul_Sorrento" title="Paul Sorrento">Paul Sorrento</a> for the last out, marking the third time in the series that a game would be decided in extra innings. </p><p>Refusing to come out of the game, Morris pitched the top of the tenth. A Twin Cities sportswriter wrote that on that night, "[Morris] could have outlasted <a href="/wiki/Methuselah" title="Methuselah">Methuselah</a>." He successfully rebuffed several attempts by Kelly to remove him during the game, and was supported by pitching coach <a href="/wiki/Dick_Such" title="Dick Such">Dick Such</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-37" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-37"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>37<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Confronted with Morris's insistence on pitching the 10th, Kelly is purported to have said, "Oh hell. It's only a game."<sup id="cite_ref-38" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-38"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>38<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> And as he had been for most of the night, Morris was effective, retiring <a href="/wiki/Jeff_Blauser" title="Jeff Blauser">Jeff Blauser</a>, Smith, and Pendleton in order. Morris threw 126 pitches in the game.<sup id="cite_ref-39" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-39"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>39<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Smoltz later said that if he had had the experience Morris had at the time, he might also have tried to argue his way out of being removed from the game when he got in trouble in the 8th, but as a young and fairly inexperienced pitcher, he didn't feel he had the standing to argue with Cox the way Morris did with Kelly. </p><p>Peña faced Gladden to start the bottom half of the inning, and the Twins' leadoff hitter lifted a fly ball to left field after breaking his bat upon the impact. The ball landed in front of the charging Hunter for a bloop hit, and the ball then took a high bounce that Hunter was unable to field. Center fielder Gant backed up the play and caught the hop, but Gladden dashed to second and beat Gant's throw to the bag. Kelly then called for a sacrifice bunt, and Knoblauch executed to put the winning run on third with one out. As he'd done in the eighth, Cox called for an intentional walk to the resurgent Puckett. Hrbek, who had not gotten a hit in his last 16 at-bats dating back to his single in the eighth inning of Game 3, was next up. Despite Hrbek's .115 Series average (3 hits in the Series, two of which were in Game 1) and lack of speed, and even though the Braves had left-hander <a href="/wiki/Kent_Mercker" title="Kent Mercker">Kent Mercker</a>, who had struck Hrbek out in a similar situation earlier in the series, warming up in the bullpen along with right-hander <a href="/wiki/Jim_Clancy_(baseball)" title="Jim Clancy (baseball)">Jim Clancy</a>, Cox decided to call a second consecutive intentional walk, loading the bases to set up a force play at home plate and the possibility of a double play, which would have ended the inning. </p><p>This left Kelly with a tough decision. Brown, who pinch ran for designated hitter Davis, was due up and he had not recorded a hit in the series. Entering the 10th inning, Kelly had already used four of the seven players on his bench (Bush, Newman, Brown, and Sorrento). Then in the top half of the inning, he had inserted <a href="/wiki/Scott_Leius" title="Scott Leius">Scott Leius</a>, normally a third baseman, into the game at shortstop in place of pinch hitter Sorrento. This left Kelly with backup catcher <a href="/wiki/Junior_Ortiz" title="Junior Ortiz">Junior Ortiz</a>—a weak hitter whom he would need if the game continued and something happened to Harper and who he would often use as a late-game defensive replacement as he was a better defensive catcher than Harper—and utility man <a href="/wiki/Gene_Larkin" title="Gene Larkin">Gene Larkin</a>, who was playing with an injured knee but had gotten one hit in three previous series plate appearances. </p><p>Since he would not have needed to play him in the field, as he would have filled the designated hitter role if the game advanced beyond the tenth, Kelly decided to send Larkin to the plate. On the first pitch he saw, Larkin drove a single into deep left-center over the drawn-in outfield, scoring Gladden with the series-winning run and giving the Twins their second world championship since moving to Minnesota. Morris was the first player to embrace Gladden at the plate, followed by others. At the same time, Larkin was mobbed at first base. The two jubilant groups eventually merged in the middle of the diamond. The victorious players were soon joined by their families on the field, including Morris's two sons. Later, the Twins players did a victory lap around the perimeter of the <a href="/wiki/Metrodome" class="mw-redirect" title="Metrodome">Metrodome</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-40" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-40"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>40<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The seventh game of the 1991 World Series has since been widely regarded as one of the greatest games in the history of professional baseball.<sup id="cite_ref-41" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-41"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>41<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-42" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-42"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>42<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-43" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-43"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>43<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Jack Morris and his 10-inning shutout, has also since been viewed by many baseball historians as one of the greatest pitching performances in a seventh game of the World Series. </p><p>For the first time since <a href="/wiki/1962_World_Series" title="1962 World Series">1962</a>, a seventh game of the World Series ended 1–0.<sup id="cite_ref-44" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-44"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>44<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It was also the first World Series-deciding game to go into extra innings since Game 4 of the <a href="/wiki/1939_World_Series" title="1939 World Series">1939 Series</a>.

Over the next several seasons, the players that made up the core of the 1987 and 1991 Twins slowly began to leave. Gladden, the left fielder, departed in the offseason for Detroit. Morris, the pitching hero of the series, signed with Toronto and returned to the World Series the next year. Gagne and Davis departed after the 1992 season and Harper at the end of the 1993 season. Hrbek's production began falling due to injuries that kept him off the field for much of the next two seasons, and he retired in 1994. </p><p>The Twins traded away both Erickson and Tapani (neither ever regained his 1991 form) in <a href="/wiki/1995_Minnesota_Twins_season" title="1995 Minnesota Twins season">1995</a>, and Puckett retired due to a loss of vision in his right eye caused by <a href="/wiki/Glaucoma" title="Glaucoma">glaucoma</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-46" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-46"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>46<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Though the Twins didn't make it to the postseason for the rest of Puckett's career, he remained an elite player. In 1994, Puckett was switched to right field and won his first league RBI title by driving in 112 runs in only 108 games; a pace that projects to 168 RBIs over a full season.

Puckett was the fourth baseball player during the 20th century to record 1,000 hits in his first five full calendar years in Major League Baseball, and was the second to record 2,000 hits during his first ten full calendar years. He was elected to the <a href="/wiki/National_Baseball_Hall_of_Fame_and_Museum" title="National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum">Baseball Hall of Fame</a> in <a href="/wiki/Baseball_Hall_of_Fame_balloting,_2001" class="mw-redirect" title="Baseball Hall of Fame balloting, 2001">2001</a>, his first year of eligibility. </p><p>Knoblauch was the last hitter of the 1991 team to remain in Minnesota, eventually forcing a trade after the <a href="/wiki/1997_Minnesota_Twins_season" title="1997 Minnesota Twins season">1997 season</a> to the Yankees, with whom he won three additional World Series titles. After being traded to the playoff-bound Red Sox in 1995, Aguilera returned to the Twins in 1996, used by Kelly as a starter. Aguilera returned to the pen in 1997, and stayed until midway through the <a href="/wiki/1999_Minnesota_Twins_season" title="1999 Minnesota Twins season">1999 season</a>, the last remaining player from the 1991 team.
