If you are thinking about attending the 2009 TwinsFest, we have some great information to pass along to you today. Twins.Com just put up a news release about TwinsFest that will have everyone excited.

TwinsFest will take place Jan. 23-25 at the Metrodome. More then 50 current and former Twins players will be hand so you will have a great chance to talk baseball, get pictures taken, and get autographs. A three-dimensional model of Target Field, the new Twins ballpark, returns to TwinsFest and will be on display throughout the weekend. The 5-by-5-foot model represents the most detailed depiction of what the new 40,000-seat ballpark will look like when it opens in 2010.

Additional events include tours of the Twins’ clubhouse, the Upper Midwest’s largest baseball card-and-collectibles extravaganza, kids-only player question-and-answer sessions, player photo stations, a baseball skills area, youth baseball clinics, as well as live and silent auctions. All paid admissions to TwinsFest will include a buy-one-get-one free coupon for an Upper Club ticket for a 2009 regular-season home game (game restrictions will apply).

So plan on attending the 2009 TwinsFest as it looks like a great time!

Finally we have a update to post here at TwinsHomePlate.Com! The Minnesota Twins announced on Thursday that they have given mangaer Ron Gardenhire a two year extension that should keep him in a Twins uniform through the 2011 season.

Gardenhire has a 622-512 record as Twins manager and almost managed the team back into the playoffs in 08 despite falling one game short.

Great idea by the management to give Gardenhire the extension, now they just need to make a trade or two so we have some more Twins talk here on the blog!
