My dad took me to a lot of Twins games when I was young (Animals reference). One particular game, I do not recall the year, we were sitting in the first row in the left field seats. Valdespino homered in the home half of the inning and when he took his left field position for the top of the next inning I said out loud "Nice home run Sandy Valdespino". He turned around with that big smile on his face and a quick wave before the first pitch to acknowledge my comment. The crowd seated around us loved it. And a boy who is now approaching 69 years young remembers it as if it were yesterday. Another Twins hero gone but not forgotten.
