Jim Palmer threw more innings and recorded more wins than any other American League pitcher in the 1970s.
He continued his run of excellence by becoming the first three-time Cy Young Award winner in the AL 50 years ago today. https://t.co/ErzGtyNdey
50 years ago this week, @Jim22Palmer won the 1976 AL Cy Young Award. He went 22-13 with a 2.51 ERA and 315 innings, took 19 of 24 first-place votes, and beat out Tigers rookie Mark Fidrych. He was the first AL pitcher to win three Cy Youngs. Here he is pitching in New York in September 1976. Did you ever see Palmer pitch? #Orioles #CyYoung
Eddie Murray hit two homers and Scott McGregor pitched a five-hitter to give Baltimore a 5-0 victory, its fourth straight over the Phillies to give the Orioles the World Series in five games, October 16, 1983
The @Orioles won their second World Series title #OTD in 1970, and it was only fitting that Brooks Robinson secured the final out.
The third baseman hit .429 with five runs and six RBI to earn Series MVP honors, but his fielding alone may have been enough to merit the hardware.
I’m in total disbelief my Commanders had such poor clock management in today’s overtime game against the Giants. All we had to do was kick the field goal and we would have won the game!🤦🏾♂️
You know karma isn't real because Boston fans are literally the worst people on the planet and they are rewarded with nothing but successful sports teams.
Connie Mack, born a week before the invention of the bowling ball in 1862, managed a player that is still living today, in 2025.
1952 AL MVP Bobby Shantz, who played for Mack with the 1949 and 1950 Philadelphia Athletics, turns 100 years old today.
"He's very popular, Ed. The sportos, the motorheads, geeks, sluts, bloods, waistoids, dweebies, dickheads - they all adore him. They think he's a righteous dude."
