They may have no fans in the stands during the playoffs, but part of the Twins' postseason history will be out there
Staring Monday, you can get your 2020 version of the Homer Hanky, white with red lettering, the Twins classic script, an outline of the state of Minnesota, complete with a house along the border with Iowa.
An emphasis on home, where the Twins will be for the opening round of the postseason.
The Homer Hanky tradition started in 1987 when the Twins handed out the white squares of cloth with red lettering, which fans waved enthusiastically all the way to the World Series championship.
The newest edition of the Homer Hanky, made by WinCraft in Winona, will be available at Target Field, CUB food stores, and the StarTribune's online store.
The 2020 Homer Hanky, like last year, is a 100 percent cotton terrycloth towel.
Before that, they were, well, handkerchiefs.
