Your dose of history from my vat of Twins facts / folklore.

 

It's the Mickey Mantle Homerun Video, from the game of August 22, 1968.

 

The Bomber Bully deposited Twins lefty Jim Merritt's curve into the lower, leftfield stands at Metropolitan Stadium, in Bloomington.

 

More importantly, it was his swan song, his arrivederci to Minnesota fans. Check it out.
