Fernando Rodney is a complete bum, why does Jim Leyland keep putting him in?
Prob zero, theyre HORRIBLE!Meanwhile in reality the Orioles have won 3 world series, and where one of the most dominant franchises from 1966 to 1983.
6 world series appearances, 7 AL east championships, 3 world series victories .Hall of famers Brooks Robinson, Frank Robinson, Jim Palmer, Earl Weaver, Eddie Murray and Cal Ripken jr. all became big name Orioles somewhere during that stretch of time.
In 1966 the Orioles as heavy underdogs swept Sandy Koufax, Don Drysdale and the LA Dodgers.
In 1970 the Orioles rebounded after losing to the Miracle Mets in 69. They beat the Reds in 70, where some guy named Brooks Robinson had some great defensive plays.
In 1983 the Orioles found themselves in the "I-95 world series" against Philadelphia about 90 miles northeast of Baltimore. After dropping game 1 in Baltimore's memorial stadium, the Orioles took game 2, then all 3 games in Philadelphia. A young all-star on the rise named Cal Ripken jr helped starting pitcher Scott McGregor get a complete game victory over the Phillies by catching a soft line drive for the final out.

1970: defeated Cincinnati Reds 4 games to 1 (Brooks Robinson's great fielding plays were the highlight)
