When I was a kid in Texas I went to a lot of Texas Ranger baseball games. One of the most hated teams was the Minnesota Twins. I saw them I don&quot;t know how many times. I think the only team I saw more was Baltimore, maybe the White Sox. The Twins were such a sore spot in Texas because of one short, stalky guy. Kirby Puckett. He was the hitter we all dreaded when they were in town. He was just that great. And, from what I&quot;ve read and seen, he was a great man off the field too. We&quot;ll miss you Kirby. It was a pleasure to watch you play. Thank you.
