Twins Card of the Day

Rod Carew

The American League Rookie of the Year for 1967, Rod was a pleasant surprise for The Twins. He moved right into Minnesota's starting line-up early in the year and won the second base job immediately. For the entire season Rod's average was up among the league leaders. He topped his club in triples and was third on The Twins in base-hits. Born in The Panama Canal Zone, Rod had an impressive minor league career. The fleet-footed young man stole 94 bases in three years, including 52 for Orlando in 1965.

Back to the Front! Twins card back du jour...

Zoilo Versalles

The American League's Most Valuable Player in 1965, it is doubtful that the Twins would have won the pennant without Zoilo. The small shortstop has played in two All-Star games.

Zoilo was tied for the league lead in doubles and triples
