  • 1962 Minnesota Twins Media Guide
    MINNESOTA TWINS METROPOLITAN STADIUM - BLOOMINGTON, MINNESOTA /eepreieniin the AMERICAN LEAGUE __flfl I/ic Upper l?ic/we1 The Name... The name of this baseball club is Minnesota Twins. It is unique, as the only major league baseball team named after a state instead of a city. The reason unlike all other teams, this one represents more than one city. It, in fact, represents a state and a region, Minnesota and the Upper Midwest, in the American League. A survey last year drama- tized the vastness of the Minnesota Twins market with the revelation that up to 47 per cent of the fans at weekend games came from beyond the metropolitan area surrounding the stadium. The nickname, Twins, is in honor of the two largest cities in the Upper Midwest, the Twin Cities of Minne- apolis and St. Paul. The Place... The home stadium of the Twins is Metropolitan Stadium, located in Bloomington, the fourth largest city in the state of Minnesota. Bloomington's popu- lation is in excess of 50,000. Bloomington is in Hen- nepin County and the stadium is approximately 10 miles from the hearts of Minneapolis (Hennepin County) and St. Paul (Ramsey County). Bloomington has no common boundary with either of the Twin Cities. Club Records Because of the transfer of the old Washington Senators to Minnesota in October, 1960, and the creation of a completely new franchise in the Na- tion's Capital, there has been some confusion over the listing of All-Time Club records. In this booklet, All-Time Club records include those of the Wash- ington American League Baseball Club from 1901 through 1960, and those of the 1961 Minnesota Twins, a continuation of the Washington American League Baseball Club.

    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.

  • HISTORY NASHVILLE BASEBALL HISTORY the 2019 Season Signifies the 42Nd Season for the Nashville Sounds
    HISTORY NASHVILLE BASEBALL HISTORY The 2019 season signifies the 42nd season for the Nashville Sounds. It’s the 22nd season as a member of the 16- team Pacific Coast League, and the first as the Triple-A affiliate of the Texas Rangers. Despite the 42nd season as the Nashville Sounds, baseball’s roots in Nashville go back to the 19th Century. In fact, baseball has been played in Middle Tennessee since at least 1860, when the Republican Banner newspaper published a July 25th report on the game’s popularity the previous fall. During the Civil War, Union soldiers temporarily based here helped spread the game in the local community. Home field was a place known as the Sulphur Springs Bottom, a half-mile north of today’s state capitol. When the original Southern League was organized in 1885, Nashville was a charter city and games were played at Nashville’s Athletic Park, as the Sulphur Springs Bottom location came to be known. The city fielded several entries in the league over the next ten years -- the Americans (1885-86), the Blues (1887), the Tigers (1893-94), and the Seraphs (1895) -- but was unable to claim a pennant. When the Southern Association was formed in 1901, Athletic Park – which was later given the name Sulphur Dell by famed sportswriter Grantland Rice -- became the permanent home to the Nashville Volun- teers (or Vols, for short), who played there for the next 61 years. Under the guidance of manager Newt Fisher, the Nashville club won the SA’s first two pennants. The team, which was not known as the Vols until a “name the team” contest conducted prior to the 1908 season, continued to build a solid, loyal fan base.
