The Orioles and Giants have split six games all-time, with the road team taking two of three in both series. The Orioles visited San Francisco in 2002 and the Giants visited Camden Yards in 2004.
The Orioles are 1-5 in interleague play this year (1-2 at Washington, 0-3 vs. the Mets). They went 11-7 against the NL in 2009 to tie the franchise mark for best record in interleague play (also 1999 and 2008).
Don't you miss those glory days?
They'll pass you by.
The Orioles are 102-133 all-time...

Increased interest in MASN (locally and nationally) in recent weeks...

Last Friday, I took a quick trip over to BGR - The Burger Joint in Alexandria to try the now-famous Strasburger.
The burger, which is named for and dedicated to Stephen Strasburg, features Vermont Cheddar cheese (for Strasburg's days with the Syracuse Chiefs), a grilled hot dog (representing the Phoenix Desert Dogs) and 14 pickles for the 14 strikeout debut.
BGR founder Mark Bucher conceived of the Strasburger the morning after Strasburg's incredible major league debut. He immediately...
Welcome back for another weekly 'Where in the Yard?' here in the Orioles Buzz. While the O's have taken flight from Baltimore to head out on a road trip, we'll return to Oriole Park to see how well you know your own back Yard.
Simply take a look at the photo below and let us know what the item is and where it's located in or around Oriole Park at Camden Yards.
Good Luck O's fans!
Update: Brandt (O's fan) was the first one to guess this week's image correctly, followed then by Zevi...
Happy Monday!

The Orioles are 17-46 through 63 games. The 1988 team was 16-47.
Now there's a race you can follow.
That '88 team was the worst in franchise history, losing 107 games after that horrific 0-21 start. Loss No. 47 was a 1-0 heartbreaker in Detroit, where Mike Boddicker went seven strong innings and had only aggravation - and another defeat - to show for it.
At least he didn't stray from the theme of the season.
That team won it's next game, so the Orioles will need to do the same tonight...
Cla Meredith's demotion to Triple-A Norfolk hasn't done much for his career.
Meredith was tagged with a blown save today after allowing two runs and two hits, and walking three batters, in two-thirds of an inning. His ERA is up to 16.85.
Mike Hinckley took the loss against Columbus after allowing a run in the bottom of the 10th. Starter Brandon Erbe surrendered two runs and three hits in five-plus innings and remains winless at the Triple-A level.
Josh Bell went 2-for-4 with a walk, RBI...
Kevin Millwood entered his start today coming off back-to-back starts where he allowed six runs each.
But this afternoon against the Mets, it didn't get better for Millwood. It got worse.
He gave up two homers in the first inning and trailed 5-0 after just six hitters.
"Just not throwing the ball where I need to. That's pretty much it. Hopefully, I'll figure something out between now and the next time and get back to where I was before," said Millwood, who is now 0-8 with a 5.16 ERA,...
