October 14, 1965: The day that Sandy Koufax broke my heart
It was our first major league season in the US and we fell in love with the 1965 Minnesota Twins.
They had four Cuban players: 2-time batting champ Tony Oliva, the eventual 1965 AL MVP Zoilo Versalles, a veteran but still reliable Camilo Pascual and outfielder Hilario Valdespino.
They also had Harmon Killebrew, Bob Allison, Jim Kaat and 20-game winner Jim Grant. It was a great team!
We ran home to watch the game but Koufax beat the Twins, 2-0.
I learned that day that baseball is the ultimate heart-breaker.
The 1965 Twins were the first major league team that I fell in love with:
