Surprisingly, Eddie Murray started the first three games for the Orioles at 3B that year, while DeCinces played second base. It was deemed a failed experiment as the Brewers swept the Orioles & fortunately Eddie headed back to 1B. |

Day 201 (July 19, 2020 – 201)
July 19th, 1982 in Washington, D.C., within RFK Memorial Stadium, held the 1st Annual Cracker Jack Old Timers Game. One of the most memorable things that occurred this day was that Luke Appling, former Chicago White Sox, homered off of the great Warren Spahn – at the age of 75. Below is an advertising poster for the 1982 Cracker Jack game. Day 201 a Poster.jpg 1982 Cracker Jack Old Timers Game program Day 201 b Publication 1982 Cracker Jack Old Timers July 19 1.jpg |

I really like the poster and program. Cracker Jack also produced a 16 card set of All-Time Greats that included Brooks Robinson. 1982 Cracker Jack.jpg Uncut sheets of the complete 1982 Cracker Jack set SCAN8873.jpg SCAN8874.jpg James Elder postcard of Luke Appling James Elder 01 - Copy.JPG Last edited by BaltOrioles; 07-19-2020 at 07:00 AM. |

Associated Press wirephoto from 09/30/76 showing Brooks pre-game in the locker room noting that it might be his last game as an Oriole...We all know that he did come back in 1977 as a player-coach:

While Alan did a great job last week compiling all of the Orioles No-Hitters, here are press photos from three of them:

While recently sorting through some pieces in my collection I ran across this signed gov't postcard that I acquired in a trade many years ago.
From what I've now learned from this thread is that it was most likely signed at an Orioles "Shrine of Immortals Night" from 1966 (has Foxx & Carey). My question for you guys is: -does anyone have a program from that game? -anyone idea on who the autograph might be between Watt & Lau? -the only name that confuses me is Rettenmund who debuted in '68 (though he may have been up in Baltimore for a reason...I'm thinking of writing him for his recollection): ![]()
