    Be Part of the O's Dream (in 1994)

    June 2, 1:11 PM
    by Chris Catalano, Baltimore Ad Examiner
     
     
     

    Now that the magic of the O's season seems to be wearing out on the heels of their promotional music video, let's go back to the strike shortened 1994 season, which is when the commercial below was filmed. There are some fashion gems evident in the fans' attire.

    They were in second place at 63-49 when the season was cut short in '94. Maybe it's time to give Jeffrey Hammonds and Harold Baines a call.
