Ahhh you missed a blog. I covered him on the '82 blog a while back.
ReplyDeleteIs it just me, or does the smiling bird look really big on his cap?
I actually saw someone wearing one of these old (new) O's caps a week ago. First time I'd seen anyone wearing anything Orioles in about 15 years.
Got it fixed - thanks :)
