Being a life long Baltimore Orioles fan, I’ve always been told the stories of the great teams of the past. Names like Frank Robinson, Brooks Robinson, Jim Palmer, Eddie Murray, Boog Powell and many, many more. Unfortunately, I’m only 25 years old which means in my lifetime I’ve seen only two winning seasons, 1996 and 1997.
But even as young as I was, those two seasons stand out like they happened yesterday. Even though we all know those two seasons ended in bitter disappointment, the memories they gave us, at least for me, will last a long time.
So I’m going to pick 10 moments that stand out to me (not in any particular order) from those two fun seasons.
