tonight's game (am in Burlington VT right now):
Vermont Lake Monsters (Nationals) host
Aberdeen Firebirds (Orioles). Ironically enough I went by the Firebirds home stadium while on way to Baltimore. Aberdeen is apparently Cal Ripken's hometown and they play at bright new Ripken Stadium.

Tonight's game is at the oldest park in the minors,
Centennial Field at the U of VT. Have seen this team
many times before as the VT Expos.

It's the Aberdeen IRONbirds, not Firebirds I believe and yes Cal lives just outside of the Aberdeen town limits (or he did, it's been about 11 years since I was last in the town).....
