Best Games/Moments/Memories in Target Field

[John Bonnes]

What moment from the Twins 10-year run (yes, it's been that long) stand out to you. You don't need to be too specific. Just off the top of your head, which moment stand out? My memory is just so terrible. Off the top of my head, I have....

 

- First game at Target Field

- The Jim Thome home run on Labor Day.

- Clinching the 2010 AL Central game.

- First two postseason games at Target Field in 2010 (but they lost them both).

- Thome's 6ooth home run game.

- I remember the first game of the last weekend of 2015, when against all odds they had a chance to steal a wild card and played the Royals.

- I remember Kyle Gibson's debut game. It was just such a terrible season, and that was such a bright spot.

 

Any other big memorable games? Great pitching outings or offensive explosions or debuts or something else I'm forgetting? What games do you remmber?

Thome's walk off that shut up Hawk Harrelson has to be up there...

-Mauer’s last game

-Dozier’s home run tear in late 2016

-Being in the stadium when they drafted Royce Lewis over Hunter Greene. Some fans following along were not happy!

-Ervin’s 1-hitter in April 2017

-Buxton grand slam in the middle of his awesome September in 2016

-Eddie’s pinch hit 3-run homer on the first pitch against the A’s this year after presumably getting benched for dropping a fly ball. Such an Eddie moment.

Dozier's walk off when the twins were down 6-0 going into the 9th

Oh also Eddie and Buxton hitting walkoff home runs on back to back nights

The carnival-like atmosphere during Big Sexy's first start.

 

Honestly, I feel like the like most of the past decade has been pretty forgettable. Thome had a few moments but even this year nothing really sticks out for me.

No playoff wins so not too many memories that really stick out as it is difficult to remember 1 of 162 games.

- Thome's 6ooth home run game.

That was at Comerica, correct? For me personally, it would be Eddie Rosario's first at bat and the Twins comeback against the Tigers in the 9th when they were down by five runs.

I was at the Jim Thome walkoff game. Amazing stuff. That'd be my best in-person moment for sure.
