Reviews

I'll never forget the men whose efforts earned the 1970 Orioles consideration as one of the best ball clubs of all time and after reading Pitching, Defense, and Three-Run Homers , you won't either. --Brooks Robinson, Hall of Fame third baseman --Brooks Robinson (09/26/2011)

"""I'll never forget the men whose efforts earned the 1970 Orioles consideration as one of the best ball clubs of all time and after reading Pitching, Defence, and Three-Run Homers, you won't either."" Brooks Robinson, Hall of Fame third baseman. ""After the embarrassment of the year before and the shock of losing to the Miracle Mets, the 1970 Orioles couldn't wait to avenge that defeat and show the baseball world what the fans of Baltimore already knew. Brooks Robinson and his cast of All-Stars were knocking on dynasty's door. The Oriole Way was alive and well on 33rd Street."" Ted Patterson, Orioles history expert."
