THE SIDELINES : ’65 Twins to Face Dodgers in Feb.

The 1965 Minnesota Twins, who lost the World Series in seven games to Los Angeles, will get another shot at the Dodgers in the 1991 Dream Game.

The seven-inning benefit game will be played Feb. 3 at Phoenix Municipal Stadium, with proceeds going to the child development center at Phoenix Memorial Hospital. The game has matched noteworthy teams of the past in a series that began in 1986.

“I’m glad to play for two reasons,” former Twins ace Jim (Mudcat) Grant, now a Los Angeles businessman, said. “It’s for a good cause, and it gives Minnesota another chance to get even with those suckers.”

Sandy Koufax, pitching on two day’s rest, beat the Twins 2-0 in Game 7 to give Los Angeles the title.
