Oriole Park at Camden Yards, 1992 Triple Play #263

Even though the Orioles are opening the 2010 season tonight in some bingo hall in Tampa, they will be packing the fans into this beautiful building on Eutaw Street in just a few more days. Today marks the nineteenth anniversary of the first game ever played in Oriole Park at Camden Yards - April 6, 1992. Then, it was Orioles 2, Indians 0, with veteran offseason acquisition Rick Sutcliffe tossing the shutout. Currently the score is Orioles 2, Rays 0 in the bottom of the fourth inning, with veteran offseason acquisition Kevin Millwood blanking the home team thus far. Coincidence? Nah. Let's go O's!

  2. I didn't even get very angry when it happened. Something about the 1-12 with RISP and the shaky spring training by Gonzalez. I've seen this game before...

  3. I love how the picture on the card is a shot of OPACY still under construction.

  4. FTB - So it is! Neat. I have an old wall calendar that features photos of OPACY under construction as well.
