Minnesota Twins Tickets

2009 Minnesota Twins MLB Preview:
The Minnesota Twins will move into a fancy new ballpark in 2010 named Target Field. So 2009 will be the last season that Twins fans make the trek to the HHH Metrodome. One thing Minnesota fans better hope doesn't get left behind in the Metrodome is the solid play the Twins have had over the past few years. The 2009 season should be another excellent one for Minny as they return their entire roster from a team that barely missed the 08 playoffs. Twins fans will again be cheering studs Justin Morneau and pitcher Francisco Liriano. If the Minnesota Twins get excellent pitching in 2009, then they will be a strong contender for the AL pennant.

The Minnesota Twins play baseball in the Central Division of Major League Baseball's American League. The franchise was founded in Washington D.C. in 1901 as the Washington Senators/Nationals (no relation to the current Nationals franchise that moved to Washington from Montreal). The team moved to Minneapolis/St. Paul in 1961. The organization has 3 World Series titles - 2 since moving to Minnesota, and 6 American League pennants - 3 of those since the move. Some of the famous players to wear the Twins uniform include Kirby Puckett, Paul Molitor, and Rod Carew.

The Minnesota Twins play their home games in the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The white Teflon dome roof makes for some interesting plays as it isn't unusual for a ball to hit the roof or a part of the structure of the roof and stay in play. The white color of the roof also gives the Twins a tremendous home field advantage since visiting outfielders often lose the ball in the ceiling. Watching a Twins game in this unique venue is a wild and loud experience you won't forget. Buy Minnesota Twins tickets today and don't miss any of the action!
