In his Minnesota Twins career, Kent Hrbek hit 293 home runs and helped his team to two World Series titles. But fans remember the hulking first baseman for much more than his solid play. In fourteen major-league seasons, the only uniform Hrbek wore was the Twins. This title looks back at his playing career in Minnesota.

In Tales from the Minnesota Twins Dugout, this fan favorite looks back at his playing career in Minnesota. Many stories revolve around the championship seasons of 1987 and 1991. Hrbek also shares his memories of the late Kirby Puckett and of his close friendship with third baseman Gary Gaetti. Kent Hrbek’s Tales from the Minnesota Twins Dugout is a humorous, insightful, and at times heartbreaking story of one of the most memorable eras in team history, from one of Minnesota’s very own.

Kent Hrbek is a former Twins first-baseman and host of Kent Hrbek's Outdoors.

Since 1981 he has covered the Twins for The Minneapolis Star Tribune, and he was actively reporting throughout Hrbek's career. He lives in Eden Prairie, Minnesota.
