History of Birdland

Episode 44 - 1979 World Series

On this week's show we recap one of the worst memories for a lot of Orioles fans and that's the 1979 World Series. The Orioles had a commanding 3-1 lead in the series but the Pirates fought back to steal away the Orioles third potential World Championship. If you want to, go back in time with me to recap this soul crushing series.

Episode 43 - What if the Orioles resigned Markakis, Cruz & Miller?

I probably think about this more than I would care to admit but I've always wondered what could have been with the Orioles if they decided to bring back Nick Markakis, Nelson Cruz and Andrew Miller after the 2014 season. Well I dive into it on this episode and something tells me I won't feel much better afterwards. A few years back Dan Connolly wrote a piece on this very topic, check it out here.

A player who came in with all the hype and even if he didn't quite live up to it, he was a key part in the resurgence of Baltimore Orioles baseball.
