This is a short clip form a 1959 home game of the Cleveland Indians at Cleveland Municipal Stadium. Minnie Minoso is seen hitting a home run. This is also a rain delayed game.
@unclebobunclebob that's must have felt bad for minnie. I recently bought a White Sox pin when they became american league champs and although minnie wasnt part of that, i still put it next to my minnie minoso collection.
this is a really cool video - great to see the stadium back then and in color. For the record it is called "Cleveland Municipal Stadium", not "memorial" stadium. Thanks.

Minnie was traded to Indians just before White Sox won pennant in 1959. Then they got him back. Bad timing for Orestes.
