Today is a sad day for me... I don't know how many of you are baseball fans but to Minnesota, Kirby Puckett was one of the greatest of all times. When I was a little girl I used to watch the game just for Kirby.
During the '91 world series I stayed up late to watch the last game in the series but then I fell asleep, I believe the game was on West Coast time so it ran very late... However, I woke up just in time in the last inning to see that we won and how the crowd EXPLODED with happiness!!!
Kirby Puckett was our hero!
Of course there were others on the team who made it happen but he stuck out as the brightest star...
I just want to share with you all how much he meant to me as a baseball player and as a regular joe off the street. His personal life was not perfect... I just think of him only as the best Minnesota Twins player to grace our Metrodome.
May you find peace and blessings Mr. Puckett...
