Carl R. Pohlad, owner of the Minnesota Twins, died on Monday at his home in Edina, Minn. He was 93.

Until he bought the Twins in 1984, Mr. Pohlad had kept a low profile while building a fortune in banking, financial services, soft-drink bottling, airlines, and real estate.

Mr. Pohlad's estimated net worth of $3.6 billion placed him No. 102 on the Forbes 400 list of wealthiest Americans this year.
