Twins pitching prepares for pivotal 2020 season
The secret to the Twins success will be on the mound in 2020.
We don’t yet know if fans will be allowed at either game due to COVID-19 concerns. Because of the global health pandemic, Major League Baseball shortened the season from 162 to 60 games.
The Twins got out to a big lead in the AL Central over the Indians to start last season, saw the Indians catch them and Minnesota ended up winning the division over Cleveland by eight games. It was the Twins’ first AL Central title since 2010, and Rocco Baldelli won AL Manager of the Year in his first season as manager after leading the Twins to 101 wins.
The Twins start the 2020 season July 24-26 in Chicago against the White Sox. They’ll open the Target Field season July 28 against the St. Louis Cardinals.
