Day 288 (October 14, 2020 – 288)

Photo from after Game 3 and used for a publication on the 14th. What a game...

On Wednesday, October 14, 1970, was the 4th game of the ’70 World Series. The game was played in Memorial Stadium. I had the opportunity to attend this game and still have all the souvenirs my parents purchased for me from the time at the Stadium. All the items are in relatively poor shape, but I kept them all the same. A few days after the game I cut out all the pictures of the Oriole players in my World Series program and put them in a scrapbook. Thankfully, the program is relatively inexpensive and acquired another years later. Of course, as you probably already know, the O’s lost Game 4, but it was an exciting time.

The pitchers for the game were Jim Palmer for the Orioles and Gary Nolan for the Reds.
