Day 176 (June 24, 2020 – 176)
The Orioles travelled to play the Chicago White Sox on June 14, 1969. It was Teachers’ Day at Comiskey Park. The Orioles won by the slightest of margins 12-3.
I’m not really much of a ticket collector. I have a few from when I went to the games and a few from picking them up when I hit a dry spell and nothing much else is out there. I know we have some big ticket collectors and possibly one day I’ll work on acquiring more, but for now not so much. I picked this ticket up because it was pretty big compared to the O’s tickets, nice looking, was a full ticket and the price was right. As a bonus, Brooks hit a HR in this game.
Full ticket to the White Sox vs. Orioles game on June 14, 1969.

I was trying to locate a picture of Brooks playing the White Sox, but couldn’t locate one so had to settle for a different color Sox…Red. The below photograph was taken by Frank O’Brien of the Boston Globe from a game on July 20, 1969 played at Fenway park in Boston.
