Four Twins made the All-Star Game: first baseman Harmon Killebrew, shortstop Zoilo Versalles, outfielder Bob Allison and catcher Earl Battey.
The club struck eight home runs in the first game (to tie an American League record) and four more in the nightcap, for an even dozen on the day.
Harmon Killebrew again led the team (and the American League) with 45 home runs; his 96 RBI was Minnesota's best.
The team's total of 225 home runs was the second-most ever in a season at the time, only trailing the 1961 New York Yankees' 240.
