    Twins one time center fielder Kirby Puckett is reported to have had a stroke at his Arizona home today and was taken to a Scottsdale hospital for surgery.

    Puckett, led Minnesota to a couple titles back in 1987 and 1991.

    He's a good man who played the game with skill, passion, and joy. There's some new immediate treatment for stroke. Hope he got it.
