Question by tcmae: Does the Minnesota Twins still wear their regular home jerseys with the current logo?
When I’m watching sports highlights like on Sportscenter, when I see Twins highlights, like on their home games, I recognize that they always use their home throwback jerseys http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.domeplus.com/images/twins_images/Twins_Jerseys/throwback.JPG&imgrefurl=http://www.domeplus.com/minnesotatwins/Jerseys/authentic_throwback.htm&usg=__8V3kyXRHMuyE9TV6kgMYPbF164w=&h=757&w=703&sz=32&hl=en&start=0&zoom=1&tbnid=UQQNMaSwiM5xSM:&tbnh=139&tbnw=123&ei=xdkUTvXNB4nniAK5vezDAw&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dminnesota%2Btwins%2Bjersey%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN%26biw%3D1280%26bih%3D881%26tbm%3Disch&um=1&itbs=1&iact=hc&vpx=172&vpy=520&dur=3515&hovh=233&hovw=216&tx=94&ty=107&page=1&ndsp=28&ved=1t:429,r:14,s:0&biw=1280&bih=881 or their home old throwback jerseys http://www.google.com/products/catalog?hl=en&q=minnesota+twins+jersey&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&biw=1280&bih=881&wrapid=tlif130998940140910&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=shop&cid=14441280645444122108&sa=X&ei=ItoUTr-aKenYiAKt7ajwDQ&ved=0CG0Q8gIwAw# and they don’t wear their regular home jerseys with the current logo http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.sportsmemorabilia.com/files/CMS/image/Minnesota%2520Twins%2520jersey.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.sportsmemorabilia.com/resources/team-jerseys/minnesota-twins.html&usg=__K9zxHlQPOxAc3gpAh1hXqG430g4=&h=600&w=494&sz=77&hl=en&start=0&zoom=1&tbnid=4KlUxV8tb6qF6M:&tbnh=146&tbnw=120&ei=O9oUTs_JNuzViALR3smlBA&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dminnesota%2Btwins%2Bjersey%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN%26biw%3D1280%26bih%3D881%26tbm%3Disch&um=1&itbs=1&iact=hc&vpx=918&vpy=209&dur=4264&hovh=247&hovw=204&tx=94&ty=149&page=1&ndsp=28&ved=1t:429,r:5,s:0&biw=1280&bih=881 . Now did they just got rid of those jerseys, or do they still have them? If they still have them, why are they not wearing those jerseys anymore, or they havent recently during their home games? So what happen to those home jerseys for the Twins, how come they are not wearing it anymore, how come they stop wearing those jerseys?
Is it only for the home games for the rest of the season, how about also for the away games?

They are doing this as a tribute to Harmon Killebrew. Since Killebrew’s death, the Twins have worn their 1960s throwback jerseys at every home game, and they will continue to do so all year.
EDIT: Yes, it is only for home games for this season. They have not made any changes to their road uniforms (they have two of those; one is gray and the other is dark blue). And the plan is to return to the regular jerseys next year for home games, though they’ll probably still wear the throwbacks from time to time.
@Jigokusa: yes, they did go all out. Minnesotans don’t do anything half-assed! They have the patch, too. Everyone on the Twins has #3 on his sleeve this year.
