The 1954 Baltimore Orioles season saw the restoration of Major League Baseball to Baltimore after a 51-year absence,and the debut of the modern edition of the MLB Oriole franchise. Upon the transfer of the moribund St. Louis Browns on September 30,1953,Baltimore returned to the American League over a half century after the Orioles of 1901–02 departed for New York City,where they eventually became the Yankees. The Baltimore Terrapins of the "outlaw" Federal League filled the void in 1914 and 1915,but the insurgent circuit collapsed without gaining recognition as a "third major league," and,as of 2022,its status remained in dispute. During most of its 51 seasons without a major-league team,Baltimore was represented in Organized Baseball by a top-level minor-league club,the Orioles of the International League.
