A look back at the life and times of the Twins original owner Calvin Griffith

 

An interesting 5 minute 11 second video clip by WTCN (KARE 11) Jeff Passolt done in 1984 about the life and times of the Minnesota Twins first owner. There is a short but nice aerial shot of Met Stadium that you might also enjoy as well as a peek at a young Harmon Killebrew, Rod Carew and several other players.
