Minnesota Twins Tickets

The Washington Senators, founded in 1901, were one of the most prominent teams in Major League Baseball until 1933. In 1961, when the Minneapolis Lakers moved to Los Angeles, Calvin Griffith, the owner and president of the team, did not want to alienate either of the cities, so he named it the Minnesota Twins. Even today, their two logos read "Twin Cities" and "Minnie & Paul". They featured many talented players such as Killebrew, Bob Allison, and Camilo Pascual when they arrived in Minnesota to compete in 1961, and reclaimed their glory the following year. However, the team struggled and faced many difficulties during the 1970s and early 1980s. The Minnesota Twins Club had always been owned by the Griffith family, but Calvin Griffith sold it to Carl Pohlad in 1984 due to financial difficulties. The year 1987 proved to be a turning point for the Minnesota Twins, when Tom Kelly led the team to several victories over the Cardinals. Their victories against the Braves in 1991 resulted in their winning the Baseball World Series.

The Minnesota Twins had a difficult time from 1994 to 1997, and Carl Pohlad considered selling them to a businessman based in North Carolina. In 2002, Major League Baseball almost disbanded the Twins due to their financial weakness compared to other baseball franchises. However, the team survived by dominating several seasons with a series of victories from 2001 to 2006. They faced another financial bottleneck in 2007, which again threatened their disbandment. In 2009, a stadium called Target Field was built with some private financing from the Minnesota Twins, and they also signed a lease with Target Field, ensuring their continuation as a team. The Twins played their first regular season game against the Boston Red Sox in 2010, and Joe Mauer, the star player of the Minnesota Twins, led them to victory.

The Minnesota Twins have a rich history and uphold many traditions. They celebrate at the Twins clubhouse with loud rock music selected by their winning pitcher and video games. Its players are renowned as pranksters. In 2006, the Minnesota Twins were given the nickname "The Little Piranhas", which they embraced as a new tradition and their office started a Piranha Night, where piranha finger puppets were distributed to the fans. Their colors are white, red, and navy blue. They also have a ritual that requires their most junior relief pitcher to carry water and snacks in a brightly-colored children's backpack.

In addition to being in the media spotlight across the globe and receiving coverage from all major sports television channels in the US, the Minnesota Twins have their own in-house Twins Radio Network (TRN) dedicated to broadcasting sports events and news related to the team.

After an incredible 2015 season in which the Minnesota Twins went 83-79 and finished second in the AL Central, there were high hopes for them. However, 2016 turned out to be quite the opposite. There were several hiccups early on and as the year progressed, things got worse for them and soon turned downright ugly. In the end, the Twins finished the 2016 season with a 59-103 record, the worst in baseball. Fans had high hopes for Byron Buxton and Jose Berrios, but they had a bad season. After a disappointing year, the team is now in the rebuilding phase. The Twins have a young roster and some decent pitching prospects and will be looking for a fresh start in 2017.

Minnesota Twins Rivals

New York Yankees

The Minnesota Twins do not have a traditional rivalry with another baseball team; however, they do share some bad blood with the New York Yankees. Much of this is due to their postseason history with the Yankees, which is not particularly impressive. The Twins have faced the Yankees in five postseason series since 2003, and have lost every time. Most recently, in 2017, the Yankees clinched the ALWC series 3-1. The head-to-head record overall also favors the Yankees; as of May 17, 2018, the Twins have won 83 games, while the Yankees have won 1155.
