"Orioles Classics" #TBT: O's torpedo Mariners

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: O's torpedo Mariners
We're all (Adam) Jonesing for Orioles baseball right now, but you're not missing it on this particular day because April 16 was scheduled as an off-day to begin with. How's that for rationalizing? If not for this pesky pandemic, the Birds would have just hosted the Cubs for a pair, the Wednesday game coming on Jackie Robinson Day. That's the one day during the season when you can't tell the players even with a program, since everybody's wearing No. 42 in honor of the great Dodgers...

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: Walk-off this way ...

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: Walk-off this way ...
Social isolation is a lot more palatable when you have "Orioles Classics" on MASN at your fingertips. And you don't even have to stay six feet away from the TV screen, though the oft-repeated warning from my youth - "You'll ruin your eyes!" - springs to mind. This week on "Orioles Classics," we've got some of the best walk-offs in recent vintages of Orioles history, including the final game of the storied career of Cal Ripken Jr. There are some other special games in the rotation: a...

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: Marathon wins for long-term isolation
Getting tired of jigsaw puzzles yet? You've cleaned the house to within an inch of its life and you're down to binge-watching the first (and final) season of "My Mother the Car." About this time, of course, you should be doing the heel-of-hand-to-forehead move as you remember that MASN continually brings you the best moments in Orioles history. So as most of us - apart from the grocery clerks, the first responders, the medical personnel and others who still venture into their regular work...

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: Cal Ripken Jr. takes center stage

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: Cal Ripken Jr. takes center stage
We should be celebrating the start of another baseball season today, packing Camden Yards for opening day the way only hard-core Orioles fans know how to do. What's that old adage about best-laid plans often going astray? Baseball is in a holding pattern and we're really not sure when the 2020 campaign is going to start. Luckily, we've got a treasure trove of "Orioles Classics" on MASN this week, and there's a theme of sorts. Cal Ripken Jr., the greatest shortstop of a generation (sorry,...

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: Homers in bunches, a no-hitter with a mulligan

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: Homers in bunches, a no-hitter with a mulligan
Most famously during the Super Bowl, gamblers have fun with what are called proposition, or prop, bets. These are wagers on predictions that go beyond the outcome of the game itself: How many catches will the team's top receiver make during the game? How many shots on goal will the home team take in the hockey game? How many bases will the Orioles steal during the doubleheader? How long will the singer take to perform the national anthem? Depending on the scenario, the sports-betting parlors...

Orioles' economic impact on spring home better than expected

Orioles' economic impact on spring home better than expected
Since the Orioles moved their spring training home to Sarasota, Fla., in 2010, the economic benefit to the area has far exceeded the club's projections. An annual report from the Sarasota County government finds that the Orioles have generated more than $436 million in cumulative economic impact since 2015, the first year comprehensive data became available. The analysis includes both tourism dollars coming from spring training visitors and the effects of year-round business operations in...

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: O's give White Sox head start

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: O's give White Sox head start
Florida's population this week swelled with the arrival of pitchers and catchers throughout the Sunshine State, including Sarasota, where one of the least predictable spring training competitions in the majors has begun to unfold. As you begin counting down to opening day in earnest, you'll want to catch as much as you can of the next seven days' worth of "Orioles Classics." Most of these episodes come from Orioles playoff seasons, and the ones that don't will feature major league...

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: A Baltimore baseball history lesson

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: A Baltimore baseball history lesson
This week's "Orioles Classics" on MASN read like a history lesson. So come to order, class (what, you thought Roch Kubatko had the market cornered on baseball school?). We'll start with a pair of games from the 1970 World Series, move into the Ripken portion of the curriculum, watch Eddie Murray reach a home run milestone, check in on the Orioles swansong for a couple of key contributors from a more recent vintage of the orange and black, and finish with some more from the Iron Man. Oh, and...

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: Fifty years on, it still feels good
Feeling super? Meh. The Ravens' playoff run stalled as soon as it started, and neither the Steelers nor the Patriots are playing in Sunday's big game either. There's nobody in this thing to root for or against. MASN has much more exciting television lined up in the next seven days, especially after Sunday. Each weekday morning next week, starting Monday, you can catch a rebroadcast of each game of the 1970 World Series, which happened (gulp) 50 years ago this October. Today and tomorrow...

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: Mariners foundered in Baltimore

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: Mariners foundered in Baltimore
Got the winter blahs? Repeat after me: Opening day is just a couple of months away. This week's set of "Orioles Classics" includes an opening day from four years ago that ended in a walk-off win for the O's. You'll also see a pair of late-20th century playoff games in Baltimore, one of which pitted two mound giants against one another and ended with the Birds advancing to the next round of the postseason. Add to that a trio of games featuring pitching oddities and you'll find enough...

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: Dawn of the Golden Age of O's

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: Dawn of the Golden Age of O's
The hot stove season is in full swing, and the Orioles this week signed free agent shortstop José Iglesias to fill the hole left when the club traded Jonathan Villar. That and other offseason happenings certainly hold our interest as fans who are curious about who will be where on opening day 2020. But to quote the Bard, the play's the thing. There's really no substitute for a game, but in the unfortunate absence of live baseball this time of year, MASN happily brings you the next best...

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: Tales of the glories
As Hanukkah begins and Christmas arrives, feeling festive is par for the course. Summers here the past few years, not so much. Better days lie ahead for our Orioles, we know, but waiting for the Birds to return to contention feels a lot like waiting for Santa Claus. We know he's coming, but the clock just won't move fast enough. There's no pennant under the tree this year, but MASN can give you a sleighful of O's victories to remember in this week's edition of "Orioles Classics,"...

Oriole Bird gets a nest in Mascot Hall of Fame

Oriole Bird gets a nest in Mascot Hall of Fame
The overgrown avian who has danced countless times on the dugout roof at Camden Yards to the strains of "Thank God I'm a Country Boy" will now have a second home. The Mascot Hall of Fame, devoted to the living cartoons who entertain at sporting events of all kinds, will induct The Oriole Bird this summer. The news came last night at the Whiting, Ind., museum's Fur Tie Fundraiser. The hall's class of 2020, voted in by the museum's directors, its members and the public at large in October,...

Never mind that the temperatures are dropping and we're bracing for the arrival of frozen precipitation. Anytime you can harken back to October baseball, with its crisp temps and edge-of-your-seat action, you take the opportunity to enjoy a trip to...
