    Twins throwback uniform

    Im watching the Twins/Indians right now and they are wearing the retros. Well the Twins have "STPG" on their hats and jersey, and I have no idea what it means. Do any of you?

    Just a note to all the active members of BBF, I consider all of you the smartest baseball people I have ever communicated with and love everyday I am on here. Thank you all!

    It's a Negro League Tribute game. The Twins were wearing the uniforms from the 1909 St. Paul Gophers.

        All I know is the throwbacks they wore yesterday, which were evidently from the Killebrew era, were really nice. They out to wear those more often.

          I believe those were their '61 Throwbacks that they've been wearing every Saturday at home this year. I love those. Much nicer than their current uniforms.
