TOUCH EM ALL KIRBY PUCKETT

Words that will forever be entrenched into the memory of baseball fans everywhere.
It was the bottom of the 11th inning in Game 6 of the 1991 World Series against the Atlanta Braves. With the teams tied up at 3 runs a piece, Kirby Puckett stepped up to bat facing Braves pitcher Charlie Leibrandt. After taking three pitches from Leibrandt and with a two-ball, one-strike count on him, Puckett launched the next pitch into the left-center-field seats for a dramatic game-winning home run. It was then WCCO radio's John Gordon, calling Puckett's winning homer forever made famous the line "Touch Em All Kirby Puckett!!!!"
