1987 World Series
The 1987 World Series, in which the Minnesota Twins defeated the St. Louis Cardinals in seven games,
was the first World Series in which the home team won all seven games. This also happened in 1991 and 2001.
The World Series victory by the Twins was the first for the franchise since 1924, when the team was located
in Washington, D.C. and known as the Washington Senators.
The 1987 Series was remarkable in several regards: It featured the first World Series games played in an indoor
stadium the Metrodome and the final Series game to start earlier than prime time in the eastern United States
(Game 6, with a 4 p.m. ET start), 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 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 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!"
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
combined 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.
The Hall of Fame players in the 1987 World Series was Ozzie Smith, Kirby Puckett and Steve Carlton(who did not play).
