1988 – Mother Nature gets the save in a 3-0 victory at Pittsburgh. The game is called in the top of the ninth as swirling gale-force winds stop the action. Rafael Ramirez clings to third base for all he’s worth. Dirt and debris litter the field. Mike Scott’s eight scoreless innings are good enough.

Danny Tartabull‚ who hit an inside-the-park home run against Bert Blyleven last October‚ does it again in the Metrodome. The Twins hang on for a 7 – 5 win over Kansas City. Bert also served up a pair of inside-the-parkers to Dick Allen at Metropolitan Stadium in 1972‚ his only other such homers at Minnesota.
