Of all Orioles memories, magical 1987 sticks out in Sheets' mind

Of all Orioles memories, magical 1987 sticks out in Sheets' mind
It's not difficult to pinpoint the most memorable of the six seasons Larry Sheets spent in an Orioles uniform. Just peruse his career stats and his stellar 1987 season - when he batted .316, hit 31 homers and drove in 94 runs - stick out as a high-water mark for a guy drafted 18 picks ahead of Cal Ripken Jr. by the O's in 1978. "It was magical," Sheets, now 52, said recently after participating in the Orioles Alumni Autograph Series. "Unfortunately, I wasn't able to duplicate it after...

Storen's first rehab outing is in the books

Storen's first rehab outing is in the books
Drew Storen's latest step in his recovery from right elbow surgery was a positive one. The right-hander started tonight's game for Single-A Potomac at Pfitzner Stadium against Frederick, working a scoreless first inning.

Tale of the helmet snatchers

Tale of the helmet snatchers
When Ian Desmond returns to the Nationals dugout after hitting a home run, he gets the usual handshakes and high fives. But if you watch MASN, you'll see another courtesy extended a player who returns after circling the bases or some other significant offense accomplishment. The batting helmet on a player's head doesn't stay there for long. In a sea of arms, a teammate's hands reach out and pluck the headgear. What started as a simple congratulatory maneuver has become a celebratory rite...

Flashback: With Weaver at the helm, O's were perennial winners

Flashback: With Weaver at the helm, O's were perennial winners
In Baltimore, one of the quirky perks reserved for favorite sports sons is the notion that they're on a first-name basis with the fan base. Say "Brooks," "Cal" or "Boog," and pretty much any Orioles fan will know exactly who you're talking about. No explanation - or last name - is necessary. Same with Earl Weaver, who spent his entire major league managerial career at the helm of the Orioles in two stints and amassed an impressive .583 winning percentage along with the 1970 World...
