Geocache Description:


THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE POSTED COORDINATES!

The Minnesota Twins set a franchise record with 15 consecutive wins in June of 1991.  Back then I was just a young gecko working at a reptile petting zoo at Circus Circus in Las Vegas, it didn't pay much, but I made enough money to go down to Caesar's Palace in the evening and bet on baseball games.

On June 1, the Twins were heavy underdogs at +200 against division rival Kansas City as the Royals had their best pitcher on the mound that night.  I had a good feeling so I bet $2 on the Twins.  The Twins won 8 - 4.

June 2 : The Twins were  -150 favorites at Kansas City.  I bet $6 on the Twins.  The Twins won 4-1.

June 3: The Twins returned home to the Metrodome against the Orioles.  I figured it would be a high scoring game with both teams starting rookie pitchers.  The total runs for the game was -130 OVER 7 1/2, I bet $10 on the OVER.  The Twins won 3-2.

June 4: The Twins were -200 favorites against the Orioles.  I bet $4 on the Twins.  The Twins won in a tight game, 4-3.

June 5: The Twins were -160 favorites against the Orioles.  I bet $100 on the Orioles.  The Twins won 4-3.

June 7: The Indians come to the Metrodome for a 4 game series.  The Twins were -180 favorites.  I bet $16.20 on the Twins.  The Twins won by shutting out the Indians 2-0.

June 8: The Twins were -170 favorites against the Indians.  I bet $1.70 on the Twins.  The Twins won in another low scoring affair 2-1.

June 9: The Twins were +120 underdogs to the Indians.  I bet $12 on the Indians.  The Twins beat the Indians 9-2.

June 10: The Indians had their ace pitcher going for them, and the Twins were giving Puckett and Hrbek the day off, so the Twins were +300 underdogs.  I bet $3 on the Twins.  The Twins backups lit up the Indians and the Twins won 8-5.

June 11: The Yankees come to the Metrodome for a 3 game series.  The Twins were +200 underdogs.  I bet $1 on the Twins.  The Twins won 5-3.

June 12: The Twins played game 2 of 3 against the Yankees.  The total runs for the game was at +150 OVER 8 1/2.  I bet $2 on the OVER.  The Twins won 6-3.

June 13: The Twins were +200 underdogs against the Yankees.  I bet $1 on the Twins.  The Twins won easily 10-3.

June 14: The Twins travel to Cleveland for a 3 game series.  The Twins were +160 underdogs, I bet $5 on the Twins.  The Twins shut out the Indians and won 7-0.

June 15: The Twins played a night game against the Indians.  The total runs for the game was -110 OVER 9 1/2. I bet $4.40 on the OVER.  The Twins won 11-7.

June 16: In the final game of the 3 game series against the Indians, the total runs for the game was -120 under 8 1/2.  I bet $6 on the UNDER. The Twins won 4-2.
