Now that the threat of being eliminated as an American League team is
gone, the Minnesota Twins are showing that they belong in the Central
Division. The Twins won their third straight Central Division
championship in 2004, and with Shannon Stewart and Torii Hunter in the
outfield, as well as 2004 Cy Young Award winner Johan Santana on the
mound, they should be part of the postseason again in 2005. Tickets at
the Metrodome go fast, given the team’s success. |

The Minnesota Twins are a
professional baseball team and one of five teams in the Central Division of the
American League (AL). Named for Minnesota’s Twin Cities of Minneapolis and Saint
Paul, the club plays at the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome in Minneapolis. The
franchise originated as the Washington Senators, a club that joined the American
League at the time of the league’s formation in 1901.
-
The team that now plays in Minneapolis began as a charter member of the American
League in 1901, when it was known as the Washington Senators. A relatively
unsuccessful franchise, the Senators won just one World Series title (1924) and
appeared in two others. As attendance dwindled in 1960, AL officials reluctantly
allowed Senators owner Calvin Griffith to relocate his club to Minneapolis,
despite pleas from the Congress of the United States and President Dwight D.
Eisenhower.

The Minnesota Twins reached the
playoffs three times from 1961 to 1970, during the franchise’s first 10 years.
The Twins first won the World Series in 1987. The club won another Series title
in 1991. Both championship teams were led by manager Tom Kelly and perennial
.300 hitter and All-Star outfielder Kirby Puckett.
-
Two of the greatest Twins
players were slugger Harmon Killebrew and line-drive hitter Rod Carew. Killebrew
won six AL home run titles and ranks in the top ten on the all-time home run
list with 573. Carew, recognized as the best pure hitter of his day, won seven
league batting crowns and compiled a career .328 average—among the best averages
recorded in the second half of the 20th century.
