Kelly handles World Series pressure as Twins face must-win Game 6
Minnesota manager Tom Kelly, 37, speaks in a calm, terse style at a Metrodome news conference as he prepares his Twins for Game 6 against the St. Louis Cardinals. He downplays challenges, pins emphasis on winning one game, and notes the need to limit Cardinals running and protect against injuries while relying on Les Straker to pitch deep. Tim Laudner and Vince Coleman are cited on base running, with Laudner insisting they won’t concede and will not rely on throwing out runners alone.
