I have no words to describe what I'm feeling right now.

I saw almost 600 games that this man played in. I used to sit in centerfield at the metrodome just to watch him close up. I remember being in the stands for game 6 of the 1991 world series watching him singlehandedly beat the Braves. The entire state of Minnesota is in shock, me included.
