There was a seventh game, of course, and it was played at 12:30 that afternoon. (There was a heavy rain overnight, but thanks to helicopters brought in to dry the field, the game was able to go on. Perhaps the Twins wished otherwise.)
The first World Series game to be played at night was in 1971. The last World Series game to be played in the daytime was in 1987. Much has happened since then, of course, but this tells you a lot about what happened, and what was lost, during those 16 years. ◙
