  • 1961 Minnesota Twins Media Guide
    MINNESOTA TWINS BASEBALL CLUB METROPOLITAN STADIUM HOME OF MINNESOTA TWINS /EprP.1n/inf/ /I , AMERICAN LEAGUE _j1,, i'; , Upp er /'ZIweoi Year of the Great Confluence For the big-league starved fans of the Upper Midwest, the Big Day came on October 26, 1 9 d6a0t,e of the transfer of the American League Senators from Washington to the Minneapolis and St. Paul territory, and the merger of three proud baseball traditions. For their new fans to gloat about, the renamed Minnesota Twins brought with them three pennants won in Washington, in 1924, '25 and '33, and a world championship in 1924. Now, their new boosters could claim a share of such Senator greats as Clark C. (Old Fox) Griffith, Wolter (Big Train) Johnson, Joe Cronin, Lean (Goose) Goslin, Clyde (Deerfoot) Milan, Ed Delahanty, James (Mickey) Vernon, Roy Sievers, and others. Reciprocally, the Twins could now absorb the glories of 18 American Asso- ciation pennants - nine won by St. Paul and nine by Minneapolis - in 59 seasons. They could be reminded of the tremendous pennant burst by St. Paul in 1920, with the Saints winning 115, losing only 49, posting a .701 percentage, and running away from Joe McCarthy's second-place Louisville Colonels by 28 1/2 games. Mike Kelley, the American Association's grand old man, managed that one and four other Saints flag winners before buying the Minneapolis club and putting together three more championship combinations. The pattern for winning boll in St. Paul was set early, in the first year of minor league ball, in fact.

    Luke Stuart, “A Quaker takes Big Train Deep” ©DiamondsintheDusk.com On August 8, 1921, St. Louis Browns’ rookie second baseman and Guilford (N.C.) College graduate Luke Stuart becomes the first player in American League history to hit a home run in his first major league at bat when the 29-year-old rookie clouts a two-run inside the park home run off of Wash- ington Senators’ Hall of Fame pitcher Walter Johnson. A late inning sub for 21-year-old regu- lar second baseman Marty McManus, Stuart’s ninth-inning “vicious liner” to Griffith Stadium’s 424-foot left field wall turns out to be the only hit in his all-too-brief three-game major league career. Unfortunately, even playing long ball with a future Hall of Famer does not earn Stuart the proper recognition. In the game story the following day, The Washington Post reports, “Stewart, [sic] who had taken McManus’ place at second base, crashed a home run to the far corner of left field.” Stuart’s plate appearance against Johnson, however, is not his major league debut. Ten days earlier, on July 28, he relieves 41-year-old second baseman Jimmy Austin in the bottom of the eighth inning, picking up one assist in a 6-0 loss to the New York Yankees in the Polo Grounds. His home run earns Stuart a start at Luke Stuart Year by Year: second base the following afternoon against the Senators.
