On this date in 1954, the Orioles played their first game and lost to the Tigers 3-0 at
Briggs Stadium in Detroit. Steve Gromek defeated Don Larsen. Center fielder Gil Coan singled for the first Orioles hit.

My colleague, Steve Melewski, is in Toronto and I’ll rejoin the team next week in Cincinnati.
