Voting for the All-Star Game is over, and we’ll soon know which Orioles will be representing Baltimore at the Midsummer Classic, which will be played July 12 in Phoenix.

A list of 16 memorable moments has been whittled to eight choices, and one of them is very Orioles-centric: the home run by Cal Ripken Jr. in the 2001 All-Star Game, the last in the storied career of the Iron Man. Who could forget the call from ESPN’s Charley Steiner: “Did he do it? Did he do it? He did! … Who wrote this script?”
Voting for the final four All-Star Game memorable moments closes later today, so there’s still a chance to send Ripken’s blast to the next round.
You can vote here up to 25 times today.
