ON "ALMANAC."

TIME TO TURN OUR ATTENTION TO THIS WEEK'S INDEX FILE QUESTION.

LAST WEEK WE ASKED YOU A BASEBALL HISTORY QUESTION IN HONOR OF THE MINNESOTA TWINS HOME OPENER.

THERE'S A NICE SHOT OF TARGET FIELD WHERE THE TWINS WON THAT GAME 10-4 LAST FRIDAY NIGHT.

THEY'VE BEEN PLAYING PRETTY WELL THIS WEEK.

CATHY ASKED YOU ABOUT A BASEBALL GAME INVOLVING AN OPENING DAY OF SORTS FOR THE MYSTERY PERSON IN QUESTION.

ON THE FIRST DAY THIS PERSON "WORKED" FOR THE TWINS AT THE MAJOR LEAGUE LEVEL, THE VERY FIRST THING HE OR SHE DID WOULD BECOME A SIGNATURE PART OF THEIR CAREER.

THE DUBIOUS HONOR WOULD LAND THEM IN A TOP TEN LIST OF OTHERS WHO SHARED THEIR JOB.

OUR TASK FOR YOU SEEMED SIMPLE.

TELL US WHO THIS MYSTERY PERSON IS AND WHAT THEY DID IN THEIR FIRST PERFORMANCE FOR THE MINNESOTA TWINS.

THESE NEXT FOUR BATTERS—I MEAN CALLERS—ALL HIT FOUL BALLS.

>> ERIC: NO, NO, NO, AND DEFINITELY NO.

BUT A COUPLE OF YOU MENTIONED KEY ELEMENTS OF THE RIGHT ANSWER.

A MINNESOTA TWINS PLAYER.

A HOME RUN.

AND THE 1970 BASEBALL SEASON.

ALL ARE PART OF THE CORRECT ANSWER.

BUT NO ONE GOT ANY CLOSER.

SO WE ASK YOU AGAIN.

LET'S QUICKLY REVIEW, WITH SOME ADDED HINTS.

OUR MYSTERY PERSON MADE THEIR DEBUT AS A MINNESOTA TWIN AT THE AGE OF 19 IN JUNE 1970.

HE DID SOMETHING DURING THE FIRST AT BAT HE WAS INVOLVED IN THAT WOULD UNFORTUNATELY BECOME A SIGNATURE PART OF HIS CAREER AND EARN HIM A PLACE IN A TOP TEN LIST IN THE RECORD BOOKS.

WHO IS THIS MYSTERY PERSON AND WHAT DID HE GIVE UP IN HIS DEBUT FOR THE MINNESOTA TWINS?

WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU WHETHER YOU ARE CALLING FROM BALL CLUB LAKE, STRIKE LAKE OR HOMER, MINNESOTA IN WINONA COUNTY.

651-229-1430 IS THE NUMBER TO CALL WITH ALL OF YOUR GUESSES, RIGHT OR WRONG OR IN BETWEEN.
