Product Description
Was it really the greatest Fall Classic ever? Five games were decided by one run. Four of the games were won on the very last plate appearance. Three games went extra innings. Two managers played a seven-game chess match. One run was scored in the Game 7, 10-inning masterpiece. Add in Kirby Puckett's Game 6 for the ages, a power-hitting third base tandem, Kent Hrbek providing a lift at first, a rookie rising above the tension, veteran power, clutch pitching led by the wizened Jack Morris, plus a relentless and dynamic Atlanta Braves team–and yes, it was the Greatest World Series ever played. This beautifully-packaged seven-DVD collection contains every pitch, hit, sterling defensive play, and ear-popping Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome memory along with each glorious Minnesota Twins 1991 World Series championship moment. The collection displays the heroics of Dan Gladden, Gene Larkin, Chuck Knoblauch, Chili Davis and Brian Harper, plus the steadying leadership of Manager Tom Kelly. A special DVD audio feature allows fans to watch the World Series television broadcast and listen to the Twins Radio Network announcers! Yes, it was the greatest World Series and the proof is in the seven games digitally preserved in this DVD trophy.

Minnesota Twins: 1991 World Series Reviews
8 of 9 people found the following review helpful: By Paws McGee "Dave" (Connecticut) - See all my reviews This review is from: Minnesota Twins: 1991 World Series (DVD) What can I say? This is one of the all time greatest World Series ever played. It ranks right up there with 1975 (Reds/Red Sox) and 2001 (Diamondbacks/Yankees) World Series. Games 3 and 4 in Atlanta were great. Game 6 and 7 in Minnesota are among the all time classic series games. I was impressed with the job A&E and MLB did in presenting these games. Kudos to them for including the pre and post games segments for each game. It went it a long way to preserving the integrity and the spirit of this all time classic World Series. Also-the Twins radio network audio option lends a new perspective to the timeless gem. This is must have for any serious baseball fan. 8 of 10 people found the following review helpful: By Andrew Daniel Berry (North Carolina, USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Minnesota Twins: 1991 World Series (DVD) When you look at the history of World Series and watch World Series games and years before and after this. You can honestly and seriously say this is one of the greatest of all-time. You have the 1975, 1986, 1997, 2002, and 2001 world series with the 3-time defending champion New York Yankees losing to the veteran and high price packed free agent Diamondbacks beating Mariano Rivera in the 9th inning with the lead and after 9/11. But when you know the facts about the 1991 World Series that both the Minnesota Twins and Atlanta Braves BOTH finished the previous year in last place, five of its games being decided by a single run, four games decided in the final at-bat and three games going into extra innings. Plus including Hall of Famers: John Smoltz, Tom Glavine, and Kirby Puckett. The Braves out scored the Twins 29-24 and out hit the Twins 63-56. But both teams were so evenly matched offensively and pitching wise and both teams took advantage of their home-field advantage...

It seems like it just happened--I can't believe it's been twenty years. Video and audio quality is very good--only blemish is in the middle inning of game 5, the video and audio were not matched up. The reason I didn't give it 5 stars--little to no extras. In fact, there are no extras, except for an alternative audio track--you can choose between the CBS broadcasters or the Twins broadcasters, which is good if you're a Twins fan, since it was obvious listening to the CBS version that Jack Buck was biased for the National League Braves. Classic World Series, and worth watching again. |
