The 1991 Baltimore Orioles season was a season in American baseball. It involved the Orioles finishing 6th in the American League East with a record of 67 wins and 95 losses. Cal Ripken. Jr. would be the first shortstop in the history of the American League to win two MVP awards in a career. This was also the Orioles' last year at Memorial Stadium,as they would move into Oriole Park at Camden Yards the following year.
The 1988 Baltimore Orioles had the worst start to a season in modern American baseball history. The Orioles finished 7th in the American League East,reduced to a record of 54 wins and 107 losses just five seasons after winning the World Series. The season is most notable for the 0–21 start that lasted from April 4th to April 28th. Manager Cal Ripken,Sr. was fired after an 0–6 start and replaced by Hall of Famer Frank Robinson. The Orioles won their first game of the year against the Chicago White Sox at Comiskey Park on April 29. The most runs allowed during the season was 15 in a game on June 19 while the most runs scored was 12 in a game on May 31. Orioles owner Edward Bennett Williams died in August of that year.
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.
