Baltimore Orioles Stats & Team History
Founded in 1901, the Baltimore Orioles were initially the Milwaukee Brewers for just one season. In 1902 they moved to St. Louis and changed the team’s name to the Browns. They then moved to Baltimore in 1952 and officially became the Orioles, taking over the name from the New York Yankees, who held the team name from 1901-02.
The Browns team did not find much success, making the playoffs just one time. While in Baltimore, it still took some time as the team didn’t make the playoffs until 1966, eventually winning their first World Series. That season kicked off a long stretch of quality baseball, up until 1983, going to six World Series and winning three.
A bulk of the Baltimore Orioles stats is featured by players from that 1966-to-1983 stretch, since many of those players went off to be in the Hall of Fame. Cal Ripken Jr. is one of the team’s all-time greats, leading the Baltimore Orioles stats in many categories.
