The 2012 Minnesota Twins season was the 52nd season for the franchise in Minnesota, and the 112th overall in the American League. The Twins wound up with a 66-96 record, 5th (last) place in the AL Central.

Regular season[]

On May 2, the Twins were no-hit for the fifth time in their history. Jered Weaver of the Anaheim Angels threw 121 pitches, striking out nine, walking one and allowing no hits.[1] Four of the Twins' no-hit losses have occurred in California. Two of the no-hitters were perfect games (Catfish Hunter, 1968 and David Wells, 1998).

Joe Mauer is the lone Minnesota selection to the All-Star Game, played July 10 in Kauffman Stadium. As a reserve catcher, he enters the game in the top of the eighth as a replacement first baseman and goes 1 for 1 with a single.

On September 8, the Twins retired former manager Tom Kelly's number '10'.[2] He is the seventh Twin so honored, joining Harmon Killebrew [3], Rod Carew [29], Tony Oliva [6], Kent Hrbek [14], Kirby Puckett [34] and Bert Blyleven [28]. The number '42' is retired across all of the major leagues in honor of Jackie Robinson.

Outfielder Josh Willingham wins the Silver Slugger Award for the only time in his career.
