Red Springs Twins
June 29, 2020
The tiny town of Red Springs, North Carolina hosted this Class A farm team of the Minnesota Twins during the summer of 1969. Red Springs (pop. 3,383 in the 1970 Census) was the smallest community in the United States to host its own pro baseball team that summer. Perhaps unsurprisingly, Red Springs lasted just that one season in the Carolina League, earning a place in our One-Year Wonders file.
