The Minnesota Twins are an American professional baseball team based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, who play in the Central Division of Major League Baseball's American League. The team is named after the Twin Cities area of Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota.

Minnesota Twins vs Philadelphia Phillies match in the outdoor baseball is scheduled to be played on April 12, but Twins fans have much more to be excited about the event. Minnesota Twins have been winning in recent years. Twins manager Ron Gardenhire on Friday said  that all of the pitchers in big league camp are in consideration for the role besides the four locks for the rotation -- Scott Baker, Nick Blackburn, Carl Pavano and Kevin Slowey.

This year should be an exciting year for the Twins.  With a new ballpark, new additions with Hardy and Hudson, and veteran sluggers Mauer and Morneau, the Twins will undoubtedly be a force to be reckoned with. The Minnesota Twins' new double play combination Shortstop J.J. Hardy and second baseman Orlando Hudson, said they expect their new working arrangement to go smoothly. J. J. Hardy is known for his pop at the plate. He hit 26 home runs in 2007 and 24 in 2008. And he has made the fourth-fewest errors for a shortstop since 2007, with 36.
