Well, thank you for entertaining me over the past month. I would guess the results of this poll are a forgone conclusion, but let's put it out there anyway.
Best Moment of All Time
Total Voters: 12
Loading ...Okay, no more need to show the videos. I'm guessing you know who you're voting for. We are down to four #1 seeds so I'm guessing I seeded this okay.
Which moment of the 1991 World Series was the best?

Alright, let's end this thing this week if we can. All the #1 seeds survived and we have one #6 seed left.
Found Vin Scully's full call of Puckett's homer.
Also, got Gordon/Carneal audio for Larkin's walk off and the 3-6-3 Double Play.
#1. Kirby Puckett Walks-Off Game 6 (Def. Erickson No-No 16-0)
#3. Kirby Puckett Robs Ron Gant (Def. Twins Win 2002 ALDS 12-2)
#1. Gene Larkin Walks-Off Game 7 (Def. Hrbek Tags Out Gant 14-2)
#3. Hrbek/Laudner Turn 3-6-3 Double Play (Def. Hrbek Grand Slam 11-5)
#1. Twins Win 1987 World Series (Def. Span Triples Down The Line 13-3)
#6. Twins Clinch Division in 2006 (Def. Santana Strikes Out 17 10-7)
#1. Joe Mauer's Final Game (Def. Thome Walks Off Sox 12-4)

Loading ...I tried to find Hawk Harrelson's call of Thome's homer. There's even a reddit threat talking about looking for the clip. Alas, it appears to be gone forever. I guess a minute of silence isn't worth keeping around.
Also, I found clips below of Gordo calling other parts of Game 163. I'm guessing Gladden got the call for Casilla's walk-off, and while I've never heard it, I don't really care to.
#1. Mauer's Final Game (Def. Mauer Tags Out Gardner 11-3)
#4. Thome Walks-Off Sox (Def. Arraez Pinch-Hit Walk 10-3)
#6. Baker's Near-Perfecto (Def. Lineout DP, Game 163 9-4)
#2. Casilla Drives Home Gomez (Def. HR Record, 11-2)

Loading ...The video here of Puckett includes a partial call from Vin Scully at the end I had not heard. Also, a local highlights reel of Scott Erickson's no-hitter along with a banal interview.
