The Twins won the [[American League Championship Series]] beating the [[Detroit Tigers]] 4 games to 1. [[Gary Gaetti]] was named the [[American League Championship Series|ALCS]] [[Most valuable player|MVP]]. He'd set a record by homering in his first two post-season at-bats. The Twins won the series by winning two of the three road games at Detroit despite a 4-8 regular season record vs the Tigers as well as 29 regular season wins on the road.
 
The Twins won all four home games to top the [[St. Louis Cardinals]] in the World Series. [[Frank Viola]] was named the Series' MVP even though it was the Twins bats that were instrumental in the first three wins outscoring St. Louis 29-10 in the process.
