The homerun -- Hunter's 208th in a Twins' uniform -- moved him past Kirby Puckett for sixth-place all-time
on the Twins' home run list.
Puckett's son, Kirby Puckett Jr., was on hand to witness the moment.
"Seeing that my dad mentored him, it really is pretty cool to have him be the one," Puckett Jr. said,
"because (Hunter) used to take me under his wing when I was going through a lot, so having him pass
(my dad), I wouldn't really have anybody else do it."
The home run was Hunter's 16th of the season and second in as many days.
