	Lefty Grove
		Born in Lonaconing, Maryland, Grove was a sandlot star in the Baltimore area during the 1910s.
		Grove joined the Orioles in 1920 and embarked on a epic minor league career which saw him regarded by some as one of the best pitchers in the game before he ever threw a pitch in the majors.
		Grove remained in the minor leagues through 1924 because Dunn, who ran an independent operation with no major-league affiliation, refused several offers from the majors to acquire him.

		The Orioles soon became a mini-dynasty, reaching the WS three straight years (1969-71) with a lineup that included Boog Powell, Mark Belanger, and Paul Blair, and pitchers Mike Cuellar, Dave McNally, and Jim Palmer.
		Known for strong organizational unity and "The Oriole Way," which emphasized fundamentals and careful, measured development in the minor leagues, Baltimore has also produced a slew of pitching coaches (George Bamberger, Ray Miller, Wes Stock), managers (Earl Weaver, Frank Robinson), and front-office talent (Harry Dalton, Frank Cashen).

		In 1914 the breakaway Federal League, a rebel major league which would last only 2 years, placed a team in Baltimore, and the competition hit Orioles' attendances badly.
		Since his time as an Oriole, teammates had marveled at Ruth's capacity for food and by 1919 his physique had changed from the tall athletic frame of 1916 to a rotund shape with which he was usually associated.

	My Life at Miami Stadium By Kurt Schweizer
		To this day, I am still an Orioles fan, not because they currently hold Spring Training in Ft. Lauderdale (which is not that much farther from me than Miami Stadium was), or even because the Baltimore Orioles, themselves, called Miami their spring home for more than three decades.
		It was such a thrill for me when a few of those same Miami Orioles that I watched and cheered for and, in some cases, talked to in person, would go on to become Baltimore Orioles within only a few years.
		In Minor League Baseball, as I would come to find out, change was a way of life, more often than not.
