EPISODE SUMMARY

In Part 2 of our Baltimore Orioles history, Mike Petty joins us again to talk about his memories of the 1990's team. From the 1996 team that lost to the Yankees, to the heartbreaking lost to Cleveland in 1997, to Cal Ripken Jr.'s historic streak, to the misguided signing of Albert Belle. Some great (and not so great) memories at a great ballpark!
