		Then to top it off, the team moved to Minnesota to become the Twins, but a new franchise stayed in Washington called the Senators, until that franchise moved to Texas to become the Rangers and was replaced by another new Washington team called the Nationals.
		The Twins won the 1965 pennant as Oliva led the league again at.321 (the only player to win batting titles his first two seasons) and Versailles had an MVP year.
