Twins Retire Tom Kelly's #10

Twins ManagerThe Minnesota Twins organization recently announced that former manager Tom Kelly's  uniform number will be retired during the 2012 season during a pregame ceremony when the Twins host the Cleveland Indians on Sept. 8.

While Kelly wore No. 10 for all 16 years (1986-2001) at the helm, he wore a different number as a Twins' player during his only season in the Majors. Somewhat ironically, that number was 16.


TRIVIA QUIZ: Eight players wore No. 10 for the Twins prior to Kelly. Can you name them? Hint - one of them wore the number during only part of the 1968 season before turning it over to someone else.
