To capture the "Twins Territory" faithful, the tone needs to reflect the deep Upper Midwest pride, the unforgettable 1987 and 1991 World Series championships, the legendary Kirby Puckett leap at the Metrodome, and summer days under the open sky at Target Field.

Across Minnesota and the Upper Midwest, baseball is a cherished tradition forged in Navy, Red, and White.
