While I admit that this is speculation on my part, it is based on
"facts" I found at the Minnesota Twins website.

From the Twins' website: "On October 26, [1960], Calvin Griffith,
president of the Washington Senators, made the historic decision to
move his club to the Minneapolis/St. Paul area, thereby giving birth
to the "Minnesota Twins," named after the two Upper Midwest cities."

Given this and the fact that Minneapolis/St. Paul area is commonly
referred to as the "twin cities" area, it would follow that TC stands
for Twin Cities.
