Fan challenge for Adam Jones returns with ballpark food-themed twist

We hope you've stayed hungry because the Fan Challenge is back! We're already salivating at this year's challenge: Can you prepare a better ballpark-themed menu item than Adam Jones?

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: Turn of the century

December 30, 2018, 8:22am

Orioles

More than any other fans I can think of, those of us who pull for the Orioles are more than happy to see 2018 in the rear-view mirror. With new leadership in the front office and in the dugout, fans aren't sure what 2019 will bring, but it sure ought to be interesting. Those new guys calling the shots around here have made it abundantly clear that they're looking ahead, searching for new blood and new ways (to the Orioles, at least) of doing things. But they have also given a firm nod to the...

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: Lots of homers and 1970 memories

December 21, 2018, 9:25am

Orioles

Well, you survived Christmas. And if a frenzy of wrapping paper, egg nog and shooing the cats away from the tinsel has you feeling a little like Ebeneezer Scrooge, boy, do we have the perfect pick-me-up for you. Let's start with homers. Lots of 'em. Power displays, sluggers flexing their muscle and some late damage that turned the tide toward the Orioles. And if that wasn't enough, we've got a great New Year's Day present for you: the entire 1970 World Series, pitting the Birds against the...

The ol' Warehouse was humming with the Spirit of Seasons Yet to Come earlier this week, when Orioles general manager Mike Elias introduced Birdland to the team's new skipper, Brandon Hyde. Like Bob Cratchit, Hyde now will have several youngsters to look after, as the O's rebuilding project will be flush with fresh-faced prospects. For Christmas Present, however, MASN will this week summon some ghosts from the past (OK, if you want to get technical, the principal characters in the games...

Orioles

The NCAA football playoff matchups are set, and the Oklahoma, Notre Dame, Clemson and Alabama teams are x-ing and o-ing in preparation over the long layoff that follows the end of the regular season. The Maryland grid squad has a new coach. The NFL playoff picture is becoming clearer, though it's by no means settled, certainly not where the Ravens are concerned. Especially at this time of year, you hear the term "sudden death" more commonly in the context of football. But it happens in...

Ah, distinctly I remember. It was in the bleak December ... With apologies to one E.A. Poe, we set off on another round of "Orioles Classics" on MASN, the first full week of them in the last month of an eventful 2018. Each game in these telecasts marked a different milestone in Orioles history. We begin with a bittersweet goodbye to an old friend on 33rd Street. The next installment, from eight years prior, lets us relive the start of the final push toward the Orioles' last World Series...

This week's smorgasbord of "Classics" has some of the most revered names in O's history and a smattering of home runs. Hey, chicks aren't the only ones who dig the longball!

We all know that the best thing you can do for yourself after a heavy meal is to walk it off. So on this biggest feast day of the year, and in the days to follow, MASN delivers extra helpings of walk-off Orioles wins from marathon matches of seasons past. On the menu are tasty victories over the Yankees, Nationals, Athletics and Diamondbacks, and a heaping portion of wins against the Blue Jays.

It won't be long now. Pretty soon, the house will be filled with the aroma of roasting turkey. Folks will cram around the table to give thanks for life's many blessings. They'll also debate which type of cranberry sauce is better, the jiggly gel that slides out of the can or the kind boasting actual berries. But before Turkey Day, you can give thanks for some pretty special memories by watching this week's slate of "Orioles Classics" on MASN. If you prefer your baseball to feature...

Are you enjoying the baseball playoffs? Who are you rooting for to advance to the World Series? Personally, I think an Astros-Brewers Fall Classic would be just dandy, a perfect blend of pitching prowess and offensive fireworks. Best of all, in my scenario, there are no rainouts because both teams play in facilities capable of closed roofs to protect from the elements. Plus, who doesn't love frenetic Astros mascot Orbit or the Famous Racing Sausages in Milwaukee? To get you ready for the last...
