Harmon: A Special Memory From His Career

This post is another segment in the Classic Minnesota Twins salute to Harmon Killebrew, the All-Time Greatest Twin! It's a scrollable page from the Sept., 1995 edition of Baseball Digest. Very enjoyable!  You can even go to the table of contents for this particular issue (by scrolling up to the beginning), and then clicking on the link of the issue's stories and various features. Read it all, if you like! Look for the author of this story link, Mike Blake, and you're there!

Goodbye, Old Friend! Harmon Killebrew: 1936 - 2011

In honoring Harmon Killebrew, give a listen to these soundfiles from Minnesota Public Radio, published on May 17, 2011 (ADDED, JAN. 7, 2012):

Harmon Killebrew, batting at Met Stadium, 1970

[To] the great one...you will be missed but never forgotten. The world changes and goes by without so much as a thought about the past, but baseball is the one constant; it has brought this country through many a tough time. Pure, simple and forever enjoyable to those who see it for what it is, a game.

 - Mark Hanson, St. Peter, Minn.

For all of us who admired this truly fine man, this is a sad day. That is merely an understatement.  I'm pleasantly amazed at the outpouring of affection in the print media, television, and the internet for Harmon. Very fitting...I hope these thoughts and early impressions of Harmon serve you well. May they serve as a storehouse of memories, as we move forward in the days ahead!

Here's a famous episode of "Homerun Derby," that wonderfully popular show that aired on January 30, 1960. It was the fourth show ever in the series, filmed after the 1959 season. It pitted the young Harmon against the great Mickey Mantle. No - I won't tell you who won!

I wish all the great blessings and the comfort of God be conferred upon Harmon's family this day. A friend posted a wonderful music video about Harmon a short time ago.  I think you may like it.

Harmon Killebrew: Life And Its Unfairness

PLEASE NOTE: Frequent visitors may notice the sidebar gadgets (videos, list of posts, photos, etc.) have done gone AWOL. They've been in and out, like bad TV reception.  I'm working to reacquaint Blogger with the notion of customer service, and hope to restore the navigational features soon!

The finest, like Harmon Killebrew, leave a glowing path of hope and blessings behind them, there to encourage us long after they've gone. We follow their path with a renewed belief in the goodness of other people, elevating their needs and concerns above our own.

1969 Topps Card

 Honestly, there's not much more I'm up to saying right now, this cold morning on the day after Harmon  announced he was resigned to his fate. He is entering hospice care five months after the initial diagnosis of his esophageal cancer.  I hope I can add a few words, concerning the first time I ever saw Harmon Killebrew play baseball.  Coming shortly is an entry in the continuing Twins Game of The Week series at this site. It will conjur the sights, sounds and smells of the July 29, 1969 Twins doubleheader vs. Detroit. A snapshot taken during the greatest year of a gentle man they called The Killer.

Keep the faith, fellow Twins and baseball fans! Brighter days of hope are coming!

So long for now everybody.

1961 Minnesota Twins Team Photo






Just going by this photo, you'd swear Italians were ruling baseball in the early 1960's. Ray Crump (front row, far right) looks as if he's 14 years old. And he just may have been. Owned a souvenir shop just outside the Metrodome for a long time. Pretty sure this photo was shot at Tinker Field, the Minnesota Twins first spring training home, in Orlando Florida.  A story out there that Jim Kaat was asked "What does the 'TC' stand for on your caps." "Twenty Cuban's" was his tongue-in-cheek response. Another joke that circulated: how does a team win with a Lemon leftfielder, a Green centerfielder, and a Battey catcher?

25 Best Pitched Twins Games Ever: Francisco Liriano's No Hit Gem Joins The List

Heimlich Manuever applied

to Liriano, who's just 

swallowed his disbelief.

On Tuesday night, May 3, 2011, Francisco Liriano did not allow any hits to the Chicago White Sox at U.S. Cellular Field, in his 1-0 victory.  That makes it just the fifth no-hitter (Baseball Ref. game stats ) for the Minnesota Twins in their fifty-plus years of existence (see others in chart below).  It made me curious to see where it rated in terms of the best pitching starts in Minnesota Twins history. My search for answers began with finding the finest statistical seasons of the best Twins to ever toe the rubber, i.e, "Camilo Pascual's career year of 1963." From there, it was narrowed to "Which games from the Curveballer's big year stood out?"  That led to choosing a measurement to rank the best starts: Game Scores.


I hope the following has some interest for you. I personally like the historical aspect.
Feel free to add your comments!

Game Scores

For objectively ranking the efficiency and effectiveness of a pitcher's starting performance, baseball's venerable statistics poindexter Bill James created the "game score" point method.  I like it a lot for its objectivity.  The playing of the game may be tweaked over time ( see "steroid use, impact upon offensive output," "evolution of taller pitchers," favorable ballpark factors," etc.), but it uniformly rates the performances with the same statistical info for Twins pitchers across six decades. It takes into account game data such as strikeouts, runs, innings pitched, hits allowed, runs allowed, etc. (see "Sabermetrics" link in sidebar for greater detail of method). The method gives us an idea where Francisco Liriano's start ranks in comparison to some of the all-time greatest pitching performances in Twins history.

The Top 25 (Links after date brings you to Baseball Reference description of game)

• Jack Kralick: August 26, 1962 No Hitter vs K.C.Athletics:            89
• Camilo Pascual: Sept.18, 1963 10-0 Shut Out vs Detroit Tigers      90
• Mudcat Grant: Sept. 25, 1965 5-0 Shut Out vs Wash. Senators      90
• Jim Kaat: August 27, 1966 1-0 Shut Out Win (20th) Vs CWSox    86
• Jim Merritt: May 30, 1967 Shut Out vs New York Yankees:           94
• Jim Merritt: July 26, 1967 13 inning, 3-2 No Decison vs NYY        91
• Dean Chance: August 25, 1967 No Hitter vs Cleveland Indians:     86
• Dave Boswell: Sept. 19, 1969 5-Hit, 14 K 2-1 Win Vs Sea. Pilots  86
• Jim Perry: August 7, 1970 2-1, 11 Inning CG Vs Oakland A's         87
• Bert Blyleven: May 24, 1973 1-Hit, 2-0 Shut Out vs K.C. Royals   90
• Joe Decker: June 26, 1973 15 K, 4-0 CG Win Vs CWhite Sox      91
• Bert Blyleven: Sept.26, 1973 4-1, CG Win (20th) vs Oakland A's   90
• Geoff Zahn: July 10, 1977 3-Hit 15-0 Win Vs Seattle Mariners       86
• Dave Goltz: July 25, 1977 CG, 11 Inning 2-1 Win vs Oakland A's   90
• Dave Goltz: August 23, 1977 7-0 Shut Out vs Boston Red Sox       92
• Jerry Koosman Sept. 4, 1980 2 Hit, 4-1 Win Vs KC Royals           86
• Frank Viola: June 22, 1988 3-1 Win Vs California Angels                84
• Jack Morris: Oct. 27, 1991 Gm 7 1991 W.S., 10 inn.CG 1-0 Win  84
• Scott Erickson: April 27, 1994 No Hitter vs Milwaukee Brewers    88
• Brad Radke: July 20, 1997   10 K, CG 1-0 Win Vs Oak. Athletics  87
• Brad Radke: Sept. 21, 1997 CG10inn., 9 K 1-0 Win Vs Brewers   85
• Eric Milton: Sept. 11, 1999 No Hitter, 13 K Win Vs Cal. Angels    98
• Johan Santana: July 6, 2004 13K, 4-0 Win Vs KC Royals               92
• Johan Santana: Aug. 19, 2007 17K, 8 inn., 1-0 Win Vs T.Rangers   95
• Francisco Liriano: May 3, 2011 No Hitter Vs Chicago White Sox 83

I'll go ahead and state the obvious.  Francisco's game was nowhere near the best start in Twins history.  It's not even the best overall game in his career - - you have to go back to his July 2, 2006 win over the Milwaukee Brewers for that.  But he definitely put himself in select company. One has to hope he jumped a hurdle in his pothole-laden road of 2011.

Honorable mention:

• Steve Luebber: Aug. 7, 1976 2-Hit, 3-1 Win Vs Tex. Rangers      78
• Jerry Koosman July 30, 1980 10 inning, 3 hit, 2-1 Win Vs NYY     81

I remember listening to Luebber's game. Mesmerizing, it was. But, I decided not to list it among the top 25, with reservations.  Though it was very notable for the reason that Luebber carried a no-hitter through 8-2/3 innings, two consecutive hits, plus an error (see play by play account) convinced Twins Manager Gene Mauch that Luebber was gassed.  And with uber fine closer Bill Campbell in the 'pen, who could fault the move? Additionally, Luebber ( like Francisco Liriano's no-hitter) had a lousy strikeout/walk ratio of 2/2. His removal from the best game of his career, plus his sub-80 game score, eliminates him from The List. Luebber's love of the baseball lifestyle, as opposed to the actual craft of of pitching, held no sway with me in the decision to not include him.

Koosman's omission is harder yet for me to justify. The List, after all, can only have 25 picks ( a number written in blood by the Baseball Gods ). I may yet waffle and insert him in place of one of the other choices in the list.  His "aLI," or average leverage index (amount of pressure he faced, owing to the strength of the Yankee batting order and game situation) approaches that faced by Jack Morris in Game 7 of the 1991 World Series. In the end, quibbling over details like this was like shaving layers off an onion.  


We can't get bogged down in statistical ennui and nebulousness.  So, I went instead with the other Koosman game listed. Had to...Jerry's one of our own, don't ya know.



Jerry has always been very proud

that fans  fall all over themselves

to buy his rookie card.  Nobody has the

heart to tell him...

 Additional Thoughts

There are several reasons why this event can be rated the most bizarre reversal of fortune in history for a Minnesota Twins pitcher. Here's a couple:

• Liriano's sublimely awful performance in 2011 to date: his ERA went down to 6.61, from 9.13 after his previous start against the Tampa Bay Rays. I had attended that game (see post on that game experience). The Rays had a near cycle in the first inning, less a homerun; he game up two doubles, two singles, a triple, and a walk - 4 runs out of the chute. Granted, Frankie was pitching under some very cool, even snowy conditions. But Tampa's starter and winner, Wade Davis, faced the same adversities, allowing only two hits in 6+ innings.  As an eyewitness, I had the impression the 27-year old wanted out of the game from the start. Liriano's game line: 3 IP, 83 Pitches, 7 ER, 4 BB. 4 K Game Score: 19

• Twins team performance in April. 2011: in the first, putrid month of play, the Twins as a team were 9 W - 17 L. They scored 82 runs, and gave up 139 (differential of 57 runs, an MLB worst). Throw in too that they were the last team this year to score 5 or more runs in a game, and reach double figures in wins. Worse then the Padres? Oh yes. Worse than the most impotent, offensive team of 2010. The pitching staff (see stats link) had a 5.06 ERA, gave up 31 HR, averaged 3.5 BB/Game...these are just the low lights, without mentioning fielding errors, baserunning follies, missed or poorly relayed signs.

The maxim "Win as a team, lose as a team" proves disgustingly true here.  But the Baseball Gods can evidently be kind to such a sad-ass collection, and suddenly bestow the golden touch as is their wont.

Part of the national discussion of the game, I noticed, placed the focus on a disputed play in the bottom of the 8th inning, at first base. Camera shots revealed that first base ump Paul Emmel missed the out call at first on the 5-4-3 double play attempt at first. The runner, Gordon Beckham should have been awarded first, as 1st baseman Justin Morneau missed the tag. Commentaries seemed to chime: "Liriano got a gift," or "It was pretty cheap," as if the game and no-hitter hinged on this single play.

Enough space to drive a

truck through, no.  But enough 

to fit a breadbox in the gap, si.

However, this play turns out to be an irrelevancy: Beckham would not have been given a base hit anyway, as his reaching base would have been ruled a 5-4 fielder's choice, with the hitless streak still intact. Again, I repeat: it was NOT a hit. A no-hitter is a no-hitter. Kudos to you, Mr. Francisco Liriano!!!

So, quit your whining, Twins naysayers. We part company now by saying"...And the count rides along" - TT
