 The Minnesota Twins are a professional baseball team based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA. The Twins are a member of the Central Division of Major League Baseball's American League. The Twins have played in the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome since 1982. In 2010, the Twins will move into a new ballpark, Target Field. The "Twins" name originates from Minnesota's Twin Cities area of Minneapolis and St. Paul. The team's caps feature a "TC" logo to emphasize "Twin Cities." One of the American League's eight charter franchises, the club was founded in Washington, D.C. in 1901 as the Washington Senators. That was a carryover nickname from a previous, unrelated club in the National League. In 1905 the team changed its official name to the Washington Nationals. The name "Nationals" would appear on the uniforms for only 2 seasons, and would then be replaced with the "W" logo for the next 52 years. The media often shortened the nickname to "Nats". Many fans and newspapers (especially out-of-town papers) persisted in using the "Senators" nickname. Over time, "Nationals" faded as a nickname, and "Senators" became dominant. Baseball guides would list the club's nickname as "Nationals or Senators", acknowledging the unique dual-nickname situation. |
