The Twins will unveil a statue of former manager Tom Kelly before Friday's game against the Tigers. The unveiling is set for 4:30 p.m. at Target Plaza, outside Gate 34.
Kelly managed the Twins to World Series titles in 1987 and 1991, and is the team's all-time leader in games managed (2,384), victories (1,140) and losses (1,244). His No. 10 was retired by the team in 2012.
The statue will be the eighth at Target Field, joining those of Rod Carew, Harmon Killebrew, Kirby Puckett, Calvin Griffith, Carl and Eloise Pohlad, Tony Oliva and Kent Hrbek. All the statues were sculpted by Minnesotan Bill Mack.
