The 1991 Twins only had six guys left from the 1987 RBI roster, and it happened that all three baserunners and the guy at the plate were four of them.

OTHER RBIERS INVOLVED IN THIS GAME:

Jack Morris
Chili Davis (Larkin was pinch hitting for his spot in the order, after Chili had been removed for a pinch runner)
Greg Gagne
Randy Bush (pinch hit for Gagne)
Terry Pendleton

Steve Bedrosian also pitched in the World Series for the Twins. Juan Berenguer, Mike Heath, and Danny Heep were on the Braves in 1991 but did not appear in the postseason; not sure if they were hurt or didn't make the postseason roster or just didn't get into a game.

The man wins the World Series AND was the impetus for the Dee-Nee name - clearly one of America's greatest heroes.
