The new Minnesota Twins ballpark, Target Field, has moved the game out of the Metrodome and back into the great Minnesota outdoors! Fans are loving the beautiful new ballpark and the exciting Minnesota Twins team.Prominantly displayed at Target Field is the Minnesota Twins logo, a picture of two baseball players shaking hands over a river. This logo, created by illustrator and cartoonist, Ray Barton, was chosen by former Twins owner Calvin Griffith in 1961. Griffith liked the logo because he felt it represented the region, and the "getting together" of the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and Saint Paul. The beloved drawing of "Paul" and "Minnie" was adopted as the team's official emblem and, a half-century later, a giant replica of the familiar logo looms over center field. The animated sign lights up and makes "Minnie" and "Paul" shake hands when a Twins player hits a home run.
