MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – Despite no fans in the stands this year, the Twins have had an incredible end to their regular season. The team thanked those who stayed loyal from their homes by having a car parade outside Target Field on Saturday.

“When we put this out for people to register, it was filled within a matter of hours,” said Twins Spokesperson Chris Iles. He says they gave away gift bags and hats to each car that came through from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. The gift bags were filled with “brats, buns, snacks, hats, memorabilia, everything they need to have that ballpark experience from their couch,” said Iles.

Despite playing their first season in a pandemic with empty stands, the Twins clinched a spot in the playoffs, going into it as the number one team in the American League Central division.
