    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Coming off a 2025 season in which Twins fans showed up at Target Field in record lows, the Twins tried new ways to engage fans and get them out to the ballpark. But $2 beers and free ice cream weren’t enough. Despite staying in the American League wild card race for much of the season, the Twins drew an average of 21,665 fans per game to Target Field this season, the team’s worst attendance for a non-pandemic-impacted season since moving into the ballpark in 2010.

    Tom Pohlad expressed his pride in the resilience and fight he saw from the Twins night in and night out this season. He was pleased with the culture built in the clubhouse across the past season, the buy-in from players and the clarity the Twins have gained as to how the pieces of the roster fit together.

    As he watched his 1-year-old son, Hayes, walk around the Twins’ clubhouse on Sunday afternoon, proud father Ryan Jeffers pulled out his cell phone to capture the moment. Jeffers had just wrapped up what very well could have been his last game with the only professional organization he has ever known and was savoring what were perhaps his final hours as a Twin at Target Field. Before a postgame, on-field interview, he had asked Twins sideline reporter Audra Martin to not ask him any questions spe

    The eyes of the baseball world were, in part, on Minnesota on Sunday. On the final day of the regular season, the Twins played a game that had major implications on the postseason picture. Of course, their own playoff hopes had been dashed long before Sunday — they were officially eliminated from postseason contention last weekend, though their chances took a nosedive during the later weeks of August into September.
