In post #1122, I discussed GameDay and Outside Pitch programs, including some cards issued in conjunction with the programs. Here's a quote from that post -
"In 1992, an alternate to the programs sold at Camden Yards emerged. The programs were sold outside the stadium and eventually through a yearly magazine subscription. I started collecting them one issue too late and have all the programs printed, except issue #1. I have never seen it, but haven't given up hope of finding one. They lasted from 1992 until their last program in the beginning of 2010. The number of issues each year varied, but there are 192 different. The program was initially called GameDay, but in 1994 was renamed Outside Pitch. The publication's quality improved over the years."
Obviously throughout the years, Cal Ripken Jr was a popular cover subject. Cal appeared on around 30 different covers.

However, Brooks Robinson did appear on one of the magazine covers. As discussion of the demolition of Memorial Stadium were ongoing, the December 2000 issue reflected on the history of the stadium. The stadium would be torn down in February 2002.
