For the Baltimore Orioles, the glory days stretched to decades. Through the 1960s and 1970s, the team arguably had the best players, the best manager, the best Minor League teams, the best scouts and front officeand, unarguably, the best record in the American League. But the best of all, and one of baseballs greatest teams ever, was the Orioles team of 1970. Pitching, Defense, and ThreeRun Homers documents that paradoxically unforgettable yet often overlooked World Champion team.Led by the bats of Frank Robinson and Boog Powell and a trio of 20win pitchers, the Orioles won 108 regular season games and dropped just 1 postseason game on their way to winning the World Series against the Reds. The club featured three future Hall of Fame players (Frank Robinson, Brooks Robinson, and Jim Palmer), a Hall of Fame manager (Earl Weaver), and several other star players in the prime of their careers. Featuring biographical articles on Weaver, his coaches, the broadcasters, and the players of the 1970 season, this book tells what happened in and out of the game. It details highlights and timelines, the memorable games, spectacular plays, and the teams working philosophy, the Oriole Wayand in sum recreates the magic of one of the greatest seasons in baseball history.
