The Minnesota Twins, with guidance from Major League Baseball (MLB), Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH), and the City of Minneapolis announced earlier this month they will welcome fans back to Target Field for the 2021 season. The Twins will open the season April 8 with a maximum capacity of 10,000.
This announcement was proceeded by a rollback of COVID-19 restrictions by Governor Walz, as case numbers trended downward, and vaccinations increased throughout the state.
