bullet::::- on october 4, 1986 during a twins' home game at the hubert h. humphrey metrodome, greg gagne tied a modern-era major league record by hitting two inside-the-park home runs against the chicago white sox. only 18 players in major league history have performed this feat, with gagne being just the second since 1930. both home runs were hit off chicago starting pitcher floyd bannister, who also tied a modern-era major league record by allowing two inside-the-park home runs in one game. the twins went on to win the game, 7–3.
