The team was amazingly alluring. I feel like as a kid, grudges with other teams is always tenfold, so while all about the Twins (even though they sucked bad in the mid 90's), it was very easy to be a fan of that team. Camping, BBQ's, car rides -- all narrated by the late and great Dave Niehaus with all-time great players as the characters -- Couldn't escape it. You didn't want to.

I remember spending an entire summer on this game. You could edit the player names, so I changed every single player's name in the game to their real life counterpart.
