Baltimore Orioles Opening Day, April 20, 1956 – Tales Behind the Photo trustyourstuff.com/2019/03/20/bal…

@Orioles Great show yesterday. Love the upgrades. One really small suggestion ... Please take a dab of white paint and clean up the paint drip on Cal's #8 inside the park. Every time TV camera shows it, it looks like we don't care. Heck, I'll do it if no one is available.

@TheBmoreBattery @orioles4life96 Love it

Our @orioles4life96 asked Buck Showalter if Nate McLouth hit the foul pole in The Bronx. His response: "“Hell yeah, he did! With replay, we would have kicked their ass!” 👏🏻🔥 #Birdland #baltimorebattery #Orioles #FlyDifferent

@BrettHollander Brett, Is that your dad?

73 opening day for the Orioles. The 35th at Camden Yards. There are records of opening days in Baltimore going back to the 1800’s… The tradition continues in charm city today…. What a beautiful thing. Go O’s!

@CSteele32 My man Chad!

@realbenmcdonald @Twins @Orioles @masnOrioles @kevinnbrown @Jim22Palmer You guys look like an advertisement for Brooks Brothers! Let's start a go-fund-me to get Jim an orange tie.

Happy #OpeningDay to everyone! Let’s play some hardball today @Twins vs @Orioles 3:05 ET on @masnOrioles rolling with @kevinnbrown and the legend @Jim22Palmer #Birdland #LetsGeauxOs

@masnRoch Roch, Yak yakamein was a dish explained on The Wire (season 4). I don't expect that you or the chef are familiar. But it is not a dish to that would appeal to the hoi pollio at Camden Yards.

@benwag247 - Ben, someone has to break it to Ryan he needs to be a touch more interesting. The spewing of trite comments (e.g. "developing players is a good way to improve the team"). There is lots of stuff to teach the fans.

@slgraziano Hi. I just read the piece about Truist on the MASN site. I was wondering if you are related to Dr. Graziano & family? I grew up in Original Northwood, a few houses away from them in the 1960s. Good luck with the Truist Club!

@benwag247 Ben, Fred & Barney are Buffalo Bills & Bison fans. They are showing solidarity for the parent club. Cabbage cabbage do!

@Ravens Maxx Crosby!

@JakeDRill The spirit of Jeff "Mickey" Manto is upon us. Actually, his spirit is not required. Jeff, age 61, lives in Bristol, PA.

Home Run Honeycutt does it again! Orioles prospect Vance Honeycutt improves to 4-for-4 with 4 home runs in Grapefruit League action this spring. Unbelievable.

@BenMank77 Aw, Babe was only a coach for the mighty Braves.

@BenMank77 I give up! Why would Ben introduce Michael Jordan (2/5/26) as a member of the Washington Wizards? Thats like introducing Johnny Unitas as a Charger or Warren Spahn of the Mets.

@BenMank77 Aw ... he was only a coach for the mighty Braves of Boston.

@JRConsidine Just wait til I talk about former Boston Brave great Babe Ruth.

@PaulMayne6 Bill Freehan ... I was trying to think of the most desired baseball card/catcher in 1964 after Yogi retired. Bill Freehan was it, which for an 8 year old was a disappointment.

Only six catchers in MLB history have made 10 or more All-Star appearances … Rodriguez, Berra, Piazza, Bench, Fisk and … ⬇️👍⚾️

@masnRoch Roch, Please tell your Mom that I agree with her. You and Ben did a terrific job today! P.S. I was looking at our 2025 roster in Baseball Reference. Seeing 7 catchers on the roster makes it look like Billy Martin was the GM while on a bender.

@alenaleewx - Good job handling this AWFUL winter. I don't envy your drive to work in the middle of the night. Here is a link to a classic scene re: a 40° day in Baltimore by Stringer Bell (Idris Elba). Warning - The language is not for tender ears. youtu.be/Rp1ExC52BOc?si…

@BenMank77 Major League II

As always, my answer is the same: Tango & Cash. (I realize that Tango & Cash isn’t a cult classic and didn’t posses the anticipation to disappoint anyone. But I was, in fact, disappointed that neither Stallone nor Kurt Russell could convincingly execute a high five)

It’s publication day. Buy Making It Home. You’ll laugh, cry, impress your friends, and be inspired. Plus - as a bonus - you’ll have the answer to the age-old question, “what’s the literary link between Ben Mankiewicz and Cal Ripken, Jr.?” geni.us/MakingItHomeBo… @teresastrasser
