ESPN singled out the 1991 MLB World Series between the Minnesota Twins and the Atlanta Braves as "The Greatest World Series Ever". Now, we could sit here and weigh all the different factors that could contradict such a title (nostalgia, home runs, come from behind wins, etc.), or we could accept ESPN's decision for the sake of this giveaway and move on. The 1991 World Series had huge emotional swings with the teams beating their rivals whenever they had home field advantage, and sometimes with incredibly devastating results (in Game 5, Atlanta crushed Minnesota 14 to 5) or nail-biting clinchers like the single-run final game in the 10th inning. The 1991 World Series illustrates perfectly why so many people love baseball, and with A&E's release of the entire 7-game collection in a set you can watch it over and over and over (if you have that much time to spare). To help you celebrate, we're giving away two copies, so if you want to win, just keep reading.
This beautifully-packaged seven-DVD collection contains every pitch, hit, sterling defensive play, and ear-popping Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome memory along with each glorious Minnesota Twins 1991 World Serieschampionship moment. The collection displays the heroics of Dan Gladden, Gene Larkin, Chuck Knoblauch, Chili Davis and Brian Harper, plus the steadying leadership of Manager Tom Kelly. A special DVD audio feature allows fans to watch the World Series television broadcast and listen to theTwins Radio Network announcers! Yes, it was the greatest World Series and the proof is in the seven games digitally preserved in this DVD trophy.
