The '''1987 World Series''' was played between the [[Minnesota Twins]] and the [[St. Louis Cardinals]], with both cities located on the banks of the [[Mississippi River]]. The Minnesota Twins won 4 games to 3, giving the franchise its first World Series victory since 1924, when the team was located in [[Washington, D.C.]] and known as the Washington Senators.
This was the first year [[Major League Baseball]] used this particular [[World Series]] logo. It would be the logo for the [[1988 World Series|1988]], [[1990 World Series|1990]] and [[1991 World Series]]. It would have been the [[1989 World Series|1989]] logo as well, but [[Major League Baseball]] altered it to honor the first [[Bay Bridge Series]].
==Summary==
The 1987 Series was remarkable in several regards: It featured the first World Series game played in an indoor stadium (the [[Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome]]), and was the first World Series in which all games were won by the home team. (Four previous series had the home team winning the first six games, but in all four cases, the visiting team won Game 7). The 1987 Twins<ref>[http://www.baseballlibrary.com/baseballlibrary/features/topteams/1987twins.stm BaseballLibrary.com<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> set the record for the worst regular season win-loss record of any World Series championship team (85-77, .525). This record stood until broken in 2006 by the Cardinals themselves, who won the [[2006 World Series|World Series]] after going 83-78 (.516).
Besides setting a record for the worst ever regular season winning percentage for a [[World Series]] winner (at the time) and hosting the first ever World Series game indoors, the 1987 Twins were the first team to ever enter the World Series having been outscored in the regular season. The 1987 Twins, as a team, were pretty much outnumbered in virtually every major statistical category. As ABC play-by-play man [[Al Michaels]] put it in the pre-game show for Game 1 ''"They were out everything!"'' However, he forgot that the Twins defeated Detroit by piling on 34 runs to the Tigers 23 in the 1987 ALCS composite boxscore.
For this World Series, the powerhouse Cardinals, making their third World Series appearance in a six season span, were expected to make quick work of the supposedly-hapless Twins. However, the Twins team, the Metrodome and the fans conspired to make victory in Minnesota impossible for the St. Louis team, and three of the four Dome games were well out of the Cards' reach by the [[Seventh-inning stretch]].

A raucous, sold-out Metrodome met the Cardinals on the 17th, stunning them at times with the sheer noise. The crowd noise in the [[Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome|Metrodome]] could exceed 110 [[decibel]]s, which is about the same as what a jet plane makes when it takes off. Their play was marred with numerous mistakes brought by the Dome's fast AstroTurf and white roof. The Twins' aggressive play hardly helped the Cards at all, and the game was a 10-1 blowout. Starting pitcher [[Frank Viola|Frankie "Sweet Music" Viola]] put the lights out on the Cards easily. [[Dan Gladden]] hit a [[Grand slam (baseball)|grand slam]] home run capping off a 7 run fourth inning and [[Steve Lombardozzi]] added another 2 run shot.
Frank Viola was supposed to be the best man at his brother's wedding, but had to back out when the Twins reached the World Series, since it fell on the same night as Game 1, which he was scheduled to pitch. ABC showed clips of the wedding throughout the game's broadcast.

While improving on their game one performance, the Cards were unable to hold the Twins offence again and fell behind 7-0 before beginning to rally. The Cards total of nine hits was just one short of the Twins but their bats lacked power as they managed only one double against three doubles and two home runs hit by Minnesota. The Twins broke the game open in the fourth, scoring six runs and chasing starter Danny Cox from the game. The final score was 8-4. [[Randy Bush]] and [[Tim Laudner]] each came through with a pair of 2 run scoring hits in the 4th.

Traveling down the Mississippi, to the open air of [[Busch Stadium II|Busch Stadium]], Game 3 saw a tense pitching duel between Twins starter [[Les Straker]] and [[John Tudor (baseball player)|John Tudor]] of the Cardinals. Les Straker was the first [[Venezuela]]n to pitch in the [[World Series]].
After five scoreless innings by both teams, the Twins broke through in the top of the 6th inning. [[Tom Brunansky]] hit a [[sacrifice fly]] and this looked like all the offense the game would see. But, in the bottom of the seventh, [[Juan Berenguer]], in relief of Straker, surrendered leadoff back-to-back singles to [[Jose Oquendo]] and [[Tony Pena]]. [[Terry Pendleton]] sacrificed the runners to second and third, and [[Vince Coleman]] slammed a two-run double to give the Cards a 2-1 lead. [[Ozzie Smith]] followed by singling in Coleman for the final run, and [[Todd Worrell]] closed out the win for Tudor.

In Game 4, the Cardinals issued payback to the Twins for their manhandling in Games 1 and 2, hammering Viola, who gave up 5, as they marched to a 7-2 victory. [[Tom Lawless]] hit a 3 run homer off Viola (only his second Major League homer after going 2 for 25 during the regular season) in the 4th inning.
Just prior to Game 4, [[Reggie Jackson]], who was working as a field reporter for [[Major League Baseball on ABC|ABC]]'s coverage of the 1987 World Series, admitted that he didn't know who eventual Game 4 hero Tom Lawless was.
===Game 5===

Game 5 was a much closer ball game, but eventually the Cardinals were victorious, by a score of 4-2. [[Curt Ford]] hit a two run single in the 6th, breaking a scoreless pitcher's duel between [[Danny Cox]] and [[Bert Blyleven]]. By the end of the 7th, the Cards were up 4-0. The Twins scored two in the 8th on a triple by Gaetti off reliever Todd Worrell and made a game of it but eventually relinquished the save to him. The Cardinals stole five bases in Game 5, the most for one team since the [[1907 in baseball|1907]] [[Chicago Cubs]].

Saturday, [[October 24]], [[1987]] at [[Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome]] in [[Minneapolis, Minnesota]]

The Series returned to the Metrodome with the Twins facing elimination (a position they would find themselves in once more [[1991 World Series|four years later]] against the [[Atlanta Braves]]).
The Cardinals drew first blood off [[Les Straker]] on a [[Tommy Herr]] home run in the first, and the Twins countered with two in their half of the first on RBI singles by [[Kirby Puckett]] and [[Don Baylor]]. The Cardinals quickly tied it in the second on a [[Jose Oquendo]] RBI single.
In the fourth, the Cards chased Straker when [[Dan Driessen]] led off with a double to right and went to third on a [[Willie McGee]] single. McGee took second on the attempted throw home by centerfielder [[Dan Gladden]]. [[Terry Pendleton]] followed by singling home Driessen and Oquendo hit a sacrifice fly to make it 4-2. Another run scored for the Cards in the fifth when lefty [[Dan Schatzeder]] walked [[Ozzie Smith]]. Smith went to second on a groundout, to third on a flyout, and scored on another McGee single.
But, in the bottom of the fifth, the Twins began to claw back against [[John Tudor (baseball player)|John Tudor]]. Puckett led off with a single and was doubled in by [[Gary Gaetti]]. Benefitting from use of the [[designated hitter]] in their home ballpark, the Twins then tied it on a mammoth home run by their DH, [[Don Baylor]]. After [[Tom Brunansky]] followed with a single, the Twins took the lead for good when [[Steve Lombardozzi]] singled him with two out on a close play at the plate.
The Twins then blew the game open in the sixth. [[Greg Gagne]] led off with an infield single and Puckett walked. A [[passed ball]] by [[Tony Pena]] advanced the runners. With first base open and one out, Cards veteran [[Bob Forsch]] intentionally walked Baylor to load the bases. After Brunansky popped out, lefthander [[Ken Dayley]] was brought in to face the lefty-hitting [[Kent Hrbek]]. Hrbek finally broke out of his batting doldrums and hit a [[grand slam]] and essentially put the game out of the Cards reach.
Brunansky drove in the final run in the eighth and the Twins had staved off the defeat.

Game 7 was the 500th World Series game ever played. Game 7 forced the scheduled [[National Football League]] game between the [[Denver Broncos]] and the [[Minnesota Vikings]] to be played the following night (also on ABC).
[[Joe Magrane]] of the [[St Louis Cardinals]] became only the sixth rookie pitcher to start the seventh game of a [[World Series]].<ref>[http://espn.go.com/mlb/playoffs2002/s/2002/1027/1451989.html ESPN.com - MLB Playoffs 2002 - Calm, cool Lackey looks anything but a rookie<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> He also is the only pitcher in World Series history to start Games 1 and 7 of a World Series without any starts in between.
In the second, the Cardinals looked poised to send [[Frank Viola]] to an early shower. Three straight no-out singles by [http://www.baseball-reference.com/l/lindeji01.shtml Jim Lindeman], [[Willie McGee]], and [[Tony Pena]] plated the first run. Viola settled down to retire the next two hitters, but not before [[Steve Lake]] singled in McGee for a 2-0 lead. Viola would settle into a groove, however, and allow only two more hits and no runs in eight strong innings.
The Twins came back in their half of the second on a [[Steve Lombardozzi]] RBI single, but not before a bad call at home plate by umpire [[Dave Phillips]]. Twins DH [[Don Baylor]] reached base on a hit-by-pitch by Magrane to lead off the inning and [[Tom Brunansky]] singled him to second. With one out, [[Tim Laudner]] singled to left and Baylor was gunned down at home by [[Vince Coleman]] in left, but replays showed Baylor was clearly safe. Lombardozzi then singled in Brunansky.
In the fifth, the Twins tied it when [[Greg Gagne]] reached on an infield hit and [[Kirby Puckett]] drove him in with a double. The Twins seemed on the verge of taking the lead when [[Gary Gaetti]] followed Puckett with a walk and went to second when Puckett was thrown out by Lake trying to steal third. Baylor followed with a single to center, but McGee threw out Gaetti at the plate in a violent collision with Lake.
The Twins then took the lead in the sixth off [[Danny Cox]], who had relieved Magrane the previous inning. Cox walked Brunansky to lead off, but got into an argument with first base umpire [[Lee Weyer]] over a checked-swing call. The flustered Cox then walked [[Kent Hrbek]] and was relieved by [[Todd Worrell]]. After retiring the first batter he faced, Worrell walked pinch-hitter [[Roy Smalley]] to load the bases and then gave up a two-out RBI single to Gagne.
The Twins' final run came in the eighth on an RBI double by [[Dan Gladden]]. [[Jeff Reardon]] retired the side in the ninth to give Minnesota their first World Series victory.
Twins manager [[Tom Kelly (baseball)|Tom Kelly]] became the youngest non-playing manager to win the [[World Series]] since [[John McGraw (baseball)|John McGraw]] in [[1905 World Series|1905]].

==Aftermath==
Although future [[Baseball Hall of Fame|Hall of Fame]]r [[Steve Carlton]] was left off of the Twins' playoff roster, he still attended the [[White House]] to be congratulated by [[Ronald Reagan|President Reagan]]. While making a photo op with the president, local newspapers listed the names of all of the Minnesota Twins. The only man who wasn't listed (and simply identified as a [[United States Secret Service|Secret Service]] agent) was a tall man wearing dark sunglasses in the back. The man in question was none other than Steve Carlton.
The 1987 World Series featured at least two players who would go on to win ''Manager of the Year'' awards. The Twins' [[Don Baylor]] won it in [[1995 in baseball|1995]] for his work with the [[Colorado Rockies]] while the Cardinals' [[Tony Peña]] won it in [[2003 in baseball|2003]] for his work with the [[Kansas City Royals]].
