Hint #2: They all have something in common when they played for the Orioles. Some will be easier than others.

I hope you have fun.

Only one guess from Mark, so for those of you interested, here's the list of yesterday's mystery Orioles.

1. Hoot Evers
2. Craig Gentry
3. Kelly Johnson
4. Don Lenhardt
5. Ike Delock
6. Lou Montanez

All of the players wore #14 when they appeared with the Orioles.

On a side note. Lou Montanez won the triple crown in 2008 with the Bowie BaySox (AA) and hit a home run in his first at bat with the Orioles.

Today's photos highlight the five Orioles that accomplished the rare feat of hitting for the cycle (1B, 2B, 3B, HR) in a game.

Two of the players are easy Brooks Robinson and Cal Ripken Jr. Do you know the other three?

#5. Jonathan Villar - think I got this one right since this didn’t occur that long ago.

I guessed at #1 the last go around, but I did know #4; was giving others an opportunity.

By the way I know you’ve got to be getting tired of those Brooksie items I “need”, like the 8x10 pictured. I need to bug someone else besides Scott (quitcrab) for items. I’m sure he’d appreciate it...
