Red Wings & Twins Extend Affiliation Agreement

The Rochester Red Wings and the Minnesota Twins have announced a two-year extension of their affiliation. The agreement calls for that relationship to go through at least the 2016 season.

The announcement was made Monday night during a game at Frontier Field by Twins Executive Vice President and General Manager Terry Ryan, Red Wings President, CEO and COO Naomi Silver and Chairman of the Board Gary Larder.

With a win on Sunday, the Red Wings clinched their seventh winning season in the first 12 years of affiliation with the Twins.

Prior to the affiliation with the Twins which began in 2003, the Wings have also been affiliated with the Baltimore Orioles and the St. Louis Cardinals.
