The Minnesota Twins have a very old and proud history in the MLB. The team holds the distinction of being one of the founding members of the MLB. It was formed in 1901 in Washington. At the time of its creation the franchise was known as the Washington Senators. The Senators had their period of greatest success between 1920 and 1930 when the club had such famous players in its rostrum as Goose Goslin, Walter Johnson, Bucky Harris, Joe Cronin and Sam Rice.

Move to Minnesota

When Minnesota was finally offered an expansion franchise in 1960, Washington Senator’s owners decided to relocate there instead. And so it was that the Minnesota Twins were created. The Twins take their name from the two cities Minneapolis and St. Paul that are situated close to each other. The Twins are placed in the American League where they play in the Central division. The franchise played their home games in the Metropolitan Stadium for the first two decades. From 1982 till 2009 the Twins played their home games at the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome. Currently, the team plays at the Target Field.

Finding success

The change of scenery proved to be a blessing for the club as it experienced its period of greatest success in Minneapolis. Especially successful were the 1980’s and 1990’s when the club was able to add to its trophies by winning the World Series twice. The club was filled with exceptional talent during those days with the likes of such iconic names as Bert Blyleven, Kirby Puckett, Kent Hrbek and Frank Viola.
