Mark..
Awesome proofs.....Love that kind of stuff! Alan....The ending to the game last night was crazy & I'm very happy to hear that your friend's bat company played a part! I'll deviate to something related to the current World Series as well. For over 10 years I volunteered at the Cal Ripken World Series (mainly as an Official Scorer & Public Address Announcer). In 2009, last night Dodger starting pitcher Julio Urias played in the tournament for the Mexico team who ended up in the championship game vs. Forrest Hills/Tampa. The game was televised on MLB Network and both Cal Ripken Jr. & brother Bill were the color commentators... Here is the scorecard that Cal kept during the game showing Urias playing RF batting 5th and going 0-1 with two walks in a losing cause...After the game was over, Cal & Bill took to the field for the trophy presentatiion....While gathering my things in the Press Box, I saw someone collecting all of the paperwork in the broacast booth to discard and I asked if I could hold on to Cal's scorecard & notes from the game, which they gave me:

Day 300 (October 26, 2020 – 300)
Kingston Baseball, Inc. Banquet booklet from October 26, 1978. Their guest speaker of the banquet was Brooks Robinson and as you can see lists his name on the front cover. The banquet was for Little League Baseball. 1978 Kingston Baseball, Inc. Banquet Day 300 a Publication 1978 Kingston Baseball, Inc Banquet October 26.jpg Quite a few years later, on October 26, 2009, an event put on by the Babe Ruth Museum called, “An Evening with Brooks”. It was an evening paying tribute to the greatest third baseman of all time. Day 300 z.jpg Quote: “This man (Brooks) was the foundation of the Baltimore Orioles. He was as gracious off the field, as he was graceful on it.” Frank Deford – Baltimore sportswriter |

Good morning,
I know several Orioles exhibition game programs have been featured but I don't think this one has. In 1993, the Orioles and Pirates played each other in an exhibition game (Revenge for the Orioles!). According to the back of the program, it was for Red Nose Day. I like the photos of Mike Mussina and Rick Sutcliffe on the front. 1993 Orioles Pirates game- front.jpg 1993 Orioles Pirates game- back.jpg |

Old timers games were popular in the 1980's and 90's. Equitable sponsored games in Baltimore in 1987, 1988 and 1989. Here are those programs. Quite easy to find. 1987 Equitable Old-Timers Game - Copy.jpg 1988 Equitable Old-Timers Game - Copy.jpg 1989 Equitable Old-Timers Game - Copy.jpg A lesser known game took place in Phoenix, in February 1990, between the 1969 Chicago Cubs and the 1969 Orioles. It was promoted as the Dream Game and the World Series that might have been. The game benefited the Phoenix Memorial Hospital Foundation in Phoenix. In addition to the game was a dinner and banquet. I wish I knew the score.. Dinner Program SCAN9673.JPG Game Program 1990 Exhibition Game (Phoenix) - Copy.jpg If everyone listed in the program showed up, that's a pretty nice group of players. Look how we have lost, from that list, since 1990. SCAN9674.JPG Souvenir Hat from game 9f0cb7ba981ea1acd8a6fca7f97008b8.jpg |

Day 301 (October 27, 2020 – 301)
On January 31, 1971 the New York Baseball Writers’ held the 48th Annual Dinner. The cover is pretty cool with a drawing of Brooks’ glove with an air quote from Brooks, “Pardon my Glove, Sparky!” Day 301 Publication 1971 NY Baseball Writers' 48th Annual Dinner.jpg |
