The first baseman for the LA Dodgers who famously dropped a ground ball during a crucial game was Steve Garvey. This incident occurred in the 1981 National League Championship Series against the Montreal Expos. The error was pivotal, contributing to the Dodgers' eventual victory in the series and their subsequent World Series win that year. Garvey's mistake is often remembered as a significant moment in Dodgers' playoff history.
The Twins did not win the World Series in 1988 ... the Los Angeles Dodgers won that year. The Twins did win the World Series in 1987 and their third baseman was Gary Gaetti.

The president of the Brooklyn Dodgers from 1947 to 1956 was Walter O'Malley.

O'Malley was also instrumental in the decision to move the Dodgers to Los Angeles in 1958.

1957 was the final year of the Brooklyn Dodgers. Dodgers owner Walter O'Malley moved the club to Los Angeles during the winter of 1957, the team became the Los Angeles Dodgers starting with the 1958 season.
That situation sounds somewhat similar to what is called the rotation play or wheel play in bunt situations. During a bunt situation, usually the first baseman and third baseman cover the bunt while the second baseman will cover first base and the shortstop will cover third base. In the situation you describe it sounds like the shortstop would be the defensive player to cover third base.
