Where in the Yard? (Updated w/Answer)

Where in the Yard? (Updated w/Answer)
Today is one of those beautiful winter days at Camden Yards. The sun is shining; the snow has melted; the grass on the field has been mowed; and the sprinklers are doing the early work of bringing the Yard back to life. There were even a few people milling around Eutaw Street today on my way in, and Opening Day finally feels as near as it looks on the calendar. So with your best memory of Camden Yards in the back of your mind, check out this week's 'Where in the Yard?' and tell us what's...

Wieters joins list of Orioles greats on the cover of SI

Wieters joins list of Orioles greats on the cover of SI
If you haven't seen Matt Wieters on the cover of the most recent issue of Sports Illustrated, make sure you don't miss it. Tom Verducci's feature makes Wieters the first Oriole to grace an SI cover since the IronMan himself, Cal Ripken Jr., who was certainly no stranger to the pages of Sports Illustrated. Cal's image made the cover nine times over the years, including four times in 1995 alone! (May, August, September and December) Billy Ripken and Cal Ripken Sr. also had covers all to...

More on the voice of Baltimore sports

More on the voice of Baltimore sports
If you haven't read Steve Melewski's article on former O's and Colts broadcaster Chuck Thompson, it's a nice tribute to a man (whom I think it's fair to say) Charm City has missed since his passing now five years ago. I'm a little too young to remember summer nights spent under the spell of Chuck Thompson's voice over the radio, but my father certainly isn't and I know he shares Steve's sentiments toward the voice of Baltimore sports. And I remember one summer when I was interning...

Orioles stay with Aramark for 2010

Orioles stay with Aramark for 2010
After opening the floor for other food vendors following the 2009 season, it appears that Aramark will be returning as the Orioles' concessionaire for the 2010 season, according to a recent article in the Baltimore Business Journal. The Orioles entertained interest from Centerplate, Deleware North, Levy Restaurants, and Legends Hospitality Management before deciding to stick with Aramark for the 2010 season. This offseason was the first time the Orioles had considered a change to their...

Where in the Yard? (Updated w/Answer)

Where in the Yard? (Updated w/Answer)
When we checked in last week for 'Where in the Yard?' the sun was shining on Oriole Park, and Opening Day felt closer than ever. This week, puddles are rippling on the edge of the infield, and the clouds seem to imply more rain is on the way. But there's always an air of Orioles baseball here in the Orioles Buzz, and this week's photo challenge even comes complete with the potential for extra bonus points. So take a look at the photo below and let us know what the item is and where it's...

The O's between innings

The O's between innings
During my recent search for a clip of Chuck Thompson calling an O's game, I eventually found myself on YouTube, watching various Orioles commercials. There are plenty to keep you busy, from the Brad Bergesen commercial that we all heard about recently to videos of Jim Palmer pitching for Brylecream or the Money Store. Since there are so many, I thought we'd feature one of these each week - at least until we run out of interesting O's videos. So this week I thought we'd start with a...

Obama on Opening Day

Obama on Opening Day
To celebrate the 100th anniversary of U.S. presidents tossing the ceremonial first pitch on Opening Day, President Barack Obama will attend the Nationals home opener on Monday, April 5th against the Philadelphia Phillies at 1:05 p.m. It will be the 48th time a President has thrown the ceremonial pitch in Washington D.C.

Road Trip Idea: Altoona

Road Trip Idea: Altoona
After Monday's announcement that Stephen Strasburg will make his debut with the Harrisburg Senators on Sunday, April 11th against the Altoona Curve, I imagine that many of you went searching for tickets. And if you haven't already, you should! The Nats will be out of town and Altoona is just three hours from Washington D.C. -- a perfect Sunday drive to see the star prospect in a beautiful gem of a ballpark in western Pennsylvania. "Coming up, I remember that it was the place everybody...

Where in the Yard? (Updated w/Answer)
Even the marathon dentist appointment that delayed my posting of this week's 'Where in the Yard?' couldn't dampen an admittedly wet and gloomy day at Camden Yards - not when they're setting up food, drink and merchandise booths on Eutaw Street in preparation for Opening Day. The renewal process around here is always refreshing after a long winter without ballgames or the buzz they create around the Yard, and the energy around the Warehouse steadily picks up with every day nearer to the...

If it wasn't obvious already, O's Buzz readers are the best. I checked out MASN's Fantasy Baseball game, and so far, if I'm not mistaken, the Orioles Buzz League is one of the most popular. Was it the prizes I hinted at, or were you just happy to show your support of the O's Buzz? (It's totally okay if you're thinking, "Hmm, yea...it might have been the prizes..."

The O's between innings: Palmer Edition

The O's between innings: Palmer Edition
Back on St. Patrick's Day, I posted two of the many Orioles commercials I came across on YouTube. The first was a look back to 1994, and the second involved a look ahead with the "This is Where" commercial highlighting the promise of the O's cache of young talent. This time around, I'll point you to a pair of endorsements from former Oriole, Hall of Famer and current MASN broadcaster Jim Palmer. I'll never forget my dad asking me once when I was a kid, "You know who Jim Palmer is,...
