In 2003, the Orioles moved their AAA affiliate from Rochester, NY across the border to Ottawa, Canada. The Ottawa Lynx would would be affiliated with the Orioles from 2003-2006. As I mentioned in post #2110, Ottawa was one of the tougher franchises to deal with through the mail. I never did get to a game there.
The 2003 Lynx had a pretty good season finishing 79-65, losing to Pawtucket in the playoffs. Being a AAA team, plenty of players bounced back and forth to the Orioles. I counted over 20 players that played for the Orioles at some point. The biggest names on the roster were Brian Roberts and Larry Bigbie.
The Lynx issued four programs that year, but I only have two of them
