Congratulation to Chris on one of the most dominant performances of any team in KOD history.   

Just so we can all appreciate what just happened: On September 13 after 27 games  the Twins had a losing record of 13-14.  From that that point they finished the regular season with 13 straight wins. In the post season they went 11-3 to win the KOD29 World Series.  So in all Minnesota played 54 games in KOD29. They went 13-14 in the first half of those games and an amazing 24-3 in the second half. 

Whatever Chris said to this team to make them think they were the '27 Yankees it certainly worked.  There is no doubt in my mind that the '64 Twins are definitely the deserving champs of KOD29.  Great job Chris.

Wow, what a great run. 24-3!! Unbelievable. Fun team to play with Killebrew, Oliva (his rookie year, and maybe his best season), Bob Allison, Jimmie Hall, Zoilo Versalles, Jim Kaat, Earl Battey. Great team! --submitted by Bike Mike--


Congratulations to both teams on fine seasons.  The Twins were the team of destiny this time around...good news for the Cubs though.....the O's still hold the title of most bomblasted team by the Twins. LOL
