Day 314 (November 9, 2020 – 314)
The Orioles had a good season in 1968 finishing 91-71 for a second-place finish behind the Detroit Tigers who went on to win the World Series. Hank Bauer was the manager of the Orioles but was replaced right after the All-Star break by Earl Weaver.
Who needs a ticket to an Oriole game in 1968 when you have a pass.

I personally like the look of the 1968 Topps cards and while I’m not a big fan of the team cards I think the Orioles team card in ‘68 looks pretty good.

I didn’t even know about the Venezuelan cards when I was younger and even when I first started to collect Brooks, I was unaware of their existence. Sometime along the line I saw them and of course had to try to acquire the Brooks examples.
