1965 World Series - Game 7

Game 7 of the 1965 World Series featuring the Los Angeles Dodgers facing the Minnesota Twins.  This game is in Minneapolis at the old Metropolitan Stadium.  NBC would carry all 7 games with the announce team of Twins announcer Ray Scott and and Dodgers legendary announcer (who just signed up to be in the booth for the Dodgers for a 65th season in 2014) Vin Scully.

This final game of the 1965 series would be the only game that the visiting team would win and it was the 3rd time the Twins were shut out in the 7 games.
This was the last time the Twins would be in the World Series before 1987 and this was only the second World Series in which both teams were west of the Mississippi river, the previous was 1944 when the St.Louis Browns faced off against the St. Louis Cardinals.
