I’m dating myself but I well remember the Orioles of the late ‘60s to mid-70s when they went to the World Series just about every year! Those were some teams!! As a life-long Red Sox fan I dreaded playing them but had to admire them. Pitching and Hitting in those teams....

Oh, I remember those teams too. Bleacher seats were all of 90 cents. But even the monster teams of 69 - 70 - 71, the Os never drew a million at Memorial Stadium. They would average about 10 - 12 thousand a game. They do better at Camden Yards and have made the playoffs three times in the last four years. But not this year...
