On October 17, 1987, the Minnesota Twins and St. Louis Cardinals play the first indoor game in World Series history at the Metrodome.

Dan Gladden’s grand slam caps a seven-run 4th inning. Frank Viola, whose brother got married the same day, is the winning pitcher, the Twins win going away 10-1. The noise made by the boisterous hanky-waving sold-out Minnesota crowd at times exceeds 110 decibels, an audio level equivalent to a jet plane taking off at an airport
