Baltimore Orioles

When the Toronto Blue Jays play in Baltimore they stay at the Marriott Inner Harbor at Camden Yards Hotel. It is close to the venue making it very convenient.

The current Baltimore Oriolefranchise is a member of the original eight teams that began play when the American Leaguebecamea major league in 1901. In 1901, the team playedin Milwaukee as the Brewers. The following season they relocated to St. Louis and played as the Browns. They were in St. Louis from 1902-1953. They then relocated to Baltimore in 1954 and have played there ever since. Ironically, Baltimore had one of those original eight teams that started play in 1901. Two years later that team relocated to New York and played as the Highlanders, later to be known as the Yankees.

The 1954 Baltimore Orioles yearbook with the cover picturing the Orioles Mascot has a book value of $75.00 - $100.00 . in near/mint condition. This is the first yearbook issued for the Orioles.

Condition is very important in getting a price anywhere near this price.Common flaws with yearbooks would be staining, foxing (yellowing), fading color, stains, creases, rips, loose pages, cracked binding, and writing on the cover.

Their biggest rivals are the New York Yankees, followed very closely by the Boston Red Sox. Lately, they've been trying to manufacture a rivalry with their beltway neighbors, the Washington Nationals.

Through the 2008 season, 7 numbers have been retired: 4 - Earl Weaver

5 - Brooks Robinson

8 - Cal Ripken Jr.

20 - Frank Robinson

22 - Jim Palmer

33 - Eddie Murray

42 - Retired in memory of Jackie Robinson The #7 of Cal Ripken Sr. and #44 of Elrod Hendricks have not been reissued since their deaths. It is doubtful that another Oriole will wear them and chances are they will be retired sometime in the future.

It's rumored that Brady Anderson is gay, but he has never publicly come out.

The Minnesota Golden Gophers currently play football in the HHH Metrodome in downtown Minneapolis. The football seating there is about 64,000. In the fall of 2009, the football Gophers will begin play in the new TCF Bank Stadium on the U of M campus. The football seating there will be approximately 50,000.

A Topps Bo Jackson card number 327 has a book value of about $5.00 in near/mint -mint condition. Professionally graded cards will sell for more. Condition is important.

Common flaws with football cards include: rounded edges, creases, off centered, and faded color. Any or all flaws will devalue the card significantly.

Juan Samuel is currently employed as a coach for the Philadelphia Phillies.

Yes, but all bottles but be unopened and made of plastic. Also, no beer can come in.

'oriole magic' was a song used for along time.

The town of Baltimore has a rich baseball history, both of major league teams and minor league teams. Baltimore began as a major league baseball town, then became a minor league baseball town, and finally, back to a major league baseball town.

The first Baltimore Orioles team began in 1882 as a charter member of the American Association, a major league at the time. They played in the AA through 1891 when the AA folded. They joined the National League and played until 1899 when they, along with the Washington Senators, Cleveland Spiders, and Louisville Colonels were contracted turning the NL into a league of 8 teams from 12 teams.

The Orioles of the 1890s won three consecutive National League pennants (1894-1896) and had players such as John McGraw, Wilbert Robinson, Willie Keeler, Hughie Jennings, and Dan Brouthers, all future Hall of Famers.

When the American League began play as a major league in 1901, Baltimore was awarded a team. McGraw and Robinson and several of the players from the Orioles teams of the 1890s were on this team along with future Hall of Famers Joe McGinnity and Roger Bresnahan.

The Orioles moved to New York and became the Highlanders (and eventually, the Yankees) for the 1903 season. They were replaced by a team, also known as the Orioles, that played minor league ball in the International League through the 1953 season. This team won 9 International League titles and had the great Babe Ruth as a member for the first half of the 1914 season.

The 1954 season saw major league baseball return to Baltimore when the St. Louis Browns moved to Baltimore and became the Orioles.

Wrong. He was born and raised in Oregon. http://mlb.mlb.com/team/player.jsp?player_id=425386 I interpret the answer to say that his mother was born and raised in Hawaii. Guthrie himself is from Roseburg, OR
