Based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, the Minnesota Twins are a Major League Baseball team in the Central Division of the American League.
Minnesota Twins started in Washington, D.C. in 1901 when the American League was formed and played there through the 1960 season including the management and the best players from the Kansas City franchise.
The Nationals and the Senators nicknames have been used at different times for the Washington ball club before moving to Minnesota. Generally called the Senators from 1901-04, the name was changed to the Nationals the new owner Thomas C. Noyes in 1905. "Nationals" remained on their jerseys during 1905 to 1906 but before and after that brief interval, it was " Washington" or a plain block "W". This was long before teams made nicknames registered trademarks for marketing purposes.
As the newspaper articles also kept interchanging the nick names, the owner Calvin Griffith decided to officially change the name to Senators in the 1956 season. "Senators" finally appeared on their shirts in 1959. Today, the Washington Nationals of the National League use this name.
As Walter "The Big Train" Johnson was their strength during the period 1907 to 1927, they won the 1924 World Series and came very close in 1945. But it was all downhill after this, making failures as the thing to be remembered about them.
Minnesota Twins spirited struggles became the basis of the book called ‘The Year the Yankees Lost the Pennant’ which later became the Broadway musical and movie ‘Damn Yankees’. It is about a long suffering middle-aged fan of the Washington Senators baseball club who sells his soul to the Devil and becomes a slugger. The Senators win the American League pennant due to him. You Gotta Have Heart, is a song from the musical that is frequently played at baseball games.
As the team is intended to represent the twin cities of Minneapolis-St. Paul, it is named,
"Minnesota Twins" instead of "Minneapolis". The stylized TC logo keeps reappearing as the uniform versions keep on changing. Thier original cartoon logo represents two large twins representing Minneapolis and St. Paul shaking hands over the Mississippi River, which separates the cities.
Arriving in Minnesota in 1961, they won the American League Pennant in 1965 all due to brilliant performances of superstar sluggers Harmon Killebrew and Tony Oliva and that of league MVP Zoilo Versalles. Despite this, they were defeated in the 1965 World Series by the Los Angeles Dodgers in seven games. They had to wait 22 seasons after that to return the World Series, beating the St. Louis Cardinals in 1987.
Minnesota Twins winning percentage was 37 from 1981 to 1982 and they played games at Metropolitan Stadium in Bloomington from their arrival in 1961 through 1981.
1980s superstars Kent Hrbek and Kirby Puckett breathed new life into the Minnesota Twins and they defeated the St. Louis Cardinals to win the 1987 World Series. Also, setting a record for fewest regular season victories by a World Series champion with 85.
1990 shows poor performance but Minnesota Twins won the 1991 World Series by defeating the Atlanta Braves. Game 6 is widely considered to be one of the greatest World Series games ever played.
2001 to 2006 has been really good for Minnesota Twins as they have the longest streak of consecutive winning seasons since moving to Minnesota, going 85-77 in 2001, 94-67 in 2002, 90-72 in 2003, 92-70 in 2004, 83-79 in 2005, and 96-68 in 2006.
