Baltimore Orioles

The Baltimore Orioles hail from Baltimore Maryland currently. However, a tumultuous baseball history has left some fans question what it means to be a Baltimore Oriole.

Prior to becoming the Baltimore Orioles, the team had a varied history. They were actually part of the Milwaukee Brewers prior to the formation of the American League. Then, in 1902, they moved to St. Louis and became the St. Louis Browns. They stayed there until the 1950s, when they moved to Maryland, where they have been ever since. Roster changes to the Browns made the old team nearly unrecognizable, and the team gradually rose to fame from that point forward until it peaked in the 1980s.

Since 1954, the Baltimore Orioles logo has been that of the state bird, the black and orange Oriole. The Baltimore Orioles uniforms are white for home, gray for away and black for alternate. If you want to show your team spirit and dress like the Baltimore Orioles, you can get everything from a Baltimore Orioles toddler jersey up to Baltimore Orioles 4XL jerseys online and in pro shops. Pair with your favorite pair of pants and a Baltimore Orioles baseball cap and you are ready to go.

Of course, to go and see the Baltimore Orioles, tickets must be bought. You can purchase Baltimore oriole baseball tickets and look up the current Baltimore Orioles schedule at their official site online. You can even join the All-You-Can-Eat Left Field Club, where you can watch the Baltimore Orioles play while enjoying an all-you-can-eat-pass for nachos, hotdogs, ice cream, and more.

Many people watching the Baltimore Orioles and prospects are hoping for a return of the 1983 Baltimore Orioles glory days. 1983 marked the last World Series that Orioles won, and an end of an era in Baltimore Orioles baseball history. While MVP player Cal Ripkin went on to beat the record of most consecutive games played in 1995, the Orioles have failed to return to their formal glory. With the Washington Nationals rising in popularity and the New York Yankees winning the hearts of fans, the Orioles are starting to feel the pressure.

For this year, the Baltimore Orioles spring training took place at Fort Lauderdale Stadium in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. With both wins and losses under their belt, it is anyone’s guess how well they will do this upcoming season.
