WNST STORY OF GLORY No. 19 – Getting “Baltimore” back on the Orioles jerseys wasn’t as easy as it sounds

We always find it rather comical that the Orioles and Angelos family nitpicks with Major League Baseball about the City Connect jerseys. In the modern era, everything the franchise does attempts to "reconnect" with the Baltimore fan base that it spent years alienating and subjugating by pampering to Washington baseball fans with the lack of the hometown city name on the road jerseys. Our radio station, hosts and listeners spent the first decade of our existence as the hometown sports radio station trying to explain to Peter Angelos why "BALTIMORE" across the crests of the visiting grays was not just a marketing ploy or a sales pitch, but a way of life for the home team.
