Oriole Park at Camden Yards, the beautiful baseball-only facility in downtown Baltimore, became the official home of the Orioles on April 6, 1992. The construction of the park was completed in essentially 33 months from the time razing previous structures on the 85-acre parcel began June 28, '89, in the area known as Camden Yards.

The one-time railroad center is 12 minutes west by foot from the City's Inner Harbor and only 2 blocks from the birthplace of baseball's most legendary hero, George Herman "Babe" Ruth. Ruth's father operated Ruth's Cafe on the ground floor of the family residence located at Conway Street and Little Paca, now center field at Oriole Park. The ballpark seats 48,876 (including standing room) and the project cost was approximately $110 million. It was designed by the Kansas City architectural firm of Helmuth, Obata and Kassabaum (HOK) with direction and input from the Orioles and the State of Maryland, which owns and operates the facility through its agency, the Maryland Stadium Authority (MSA).

Working under contract to HOK were the urban design firm of RTKL, the landscape architecture firm of Wallace, Roberts, and Todd, and the engineering firms of Bliss and Nyitray: Rummel, Klepper, and Kahl: and Kidde Consultants, Inc. Working under contract to the Orioles were the interior design firm of Forte Design and the graphic design firm of David Ashton and Associates.

Oriole Park is state-of-the-art yet unique, traditional and intimate in design. It blends with the urban context of downtown Baltimore while taking its image from baseball parks built in the early 20th century. Steel, rather than concrete trusses, an arched brick facade, a sun roof over the gentle slope of the upper deck, an asymmetrical playing field, and natural grass turf are just some of the features that tie it to those magnificent big league ballparks built in the early 1900's. Ebbets Field (Brooklyn), Shibe Park (Philadelphia), Fenway Park (Boston), Crosley Field (Cincinnati), Forbes Fields (Pittsburgh), Wrigley Field (Chicago), and The Polo Grounds (New York) were among the ballparks that served as powerful influences in the design of Oriole Park.

When the Orioles arrived back in Baltimore on Monday to start a seven-game homestand, manager Dave Trembley felt it was time to talk to his position players. It was time to calm them down; time to get them back on track where hitting was concerned. After winning six of their first seven games, the Orioles took a nosedive. The most noteworthy decline came from the hitters, who suddenly couldn't get hits with runners in scoring position. That malady was glaring on Sunday when the Orioles loaded the bases with no outs in the first and seventh innings and managed only one run from the two threats and that came on a walk that forced in the run. During the just-ended six-game road trip, the Orioles left 43 runners on base and, in the final three games at Tampa Bay, the...

Ramon Hernandez homers, leads Orioles to 7-4 win over Mariners (AP)

The Baltimore Orioles ranked 11th in the 14-team American League in home runs last season. Their bullpen was 13th with a lofty 5.71 ERA. So after the Orioles hit three homers and received a solid performance from four relievers Friday night in a 7-4 win over the Seattle Mariners, manager Dave Trembley had a three-word explanation for the uncharacteristic phenomenon.

When former Baltimore mayor William Donald Schaefer became governor of Maryland in the mid-1980s, he helped push plans for a baseball-only stadium through the state legislature. The plans also called for a football-only stadium next door and both would be financed by a new instant lottery game. Construction on an 85-acre site began in June 1989, took 33 months and cost $110 million. The success of Oriole Park at Camden Yards inspired other cities (Cleveland, Denver, etc.) to build their own versions of this new Retro style ballpark. Eli Jacobs, who owned the Orioles when the ballpark was built, wanted to call it Oriole Park. Schaefer preferred Camden Yards. Finally, they agreed on Oriole Park at Camden Yards.

Site of the 1993 All-Star game. Camden Yards complex includes the Baltimore & Ohio Warehouse, the longest building on the East Coast (1,016 feet long by 51 feet wide). Warehouse contains Orioles� offices as well as a cafeteria, sports bar, gift shop, and the exclusive Camden Club. Banks of lights are mounted on the roof of warehouse. Each aisle seat in the park features an 1890s Orioles logo. Unique double-decked bullpens in left-center field. Playing field is 16 feet below street level. Located only two blocks from Babe Ruth�s birthplace. Ruth�s father operated Ruth�s Cafe at 406 Conway Street, the site of which is now located in center field. Faced with brick to present a traditional appearance. Bronze baseballs imprinted in the cement of the Eutaw Street walkway commemorate home runs hit in the ballpark. The "H" in "The Sun" sign on top of the scoreboard will flash to show a scoring decision of a hit and the "E" will flash to show an error. Fans yell "O" (for Orioles) in unison when "The Star-Spangled Banner" reaches "O Say does that star-spangled banner yet wave..." Hideo Nomo threw the only no-hitter ever pitched here on April 4, 2001. Home plate was moved back seven feet for the 2001 season, but returned to its original spot the next season because, as team officials said, the new layout "adversely affected the viewing angle of the batter's eye." A significant drop in home runs had been observed in 2001. A red seat in left field (Section 86, Row FF, Seat 10) marks the spot where Cal Ripken hit home run number 278 in 1993, breaking Ernie Banks' record for most home runs hit by a shortstop. Ripken hit the seat again in 1995 while playing in consecutive game number 2130, which tied Lou Gherig's record. An orange seat in the bleachers (Section 96, Row D, Seat 23) marks the spot where Eddie Murray hit home run number 500 on September 6, 1996

Since its opening, Camden Yards has become one of the most influential ballparks built since Shibe Park and Forbes Field pioneered the modern fireproof baseball stadium in 1909. When it opened in 1992 Camden Yards ushered in a new age of ballparks. With an aging Memorial Stadium, the conception of a new stadium in Baltimore began in 1988 when plans were drawn up for a new ballpark to be built in downtown Baltimore. The ballpark was built on land that once was occupied by Babe Ruth�s father�s saloon. Owner of the Orioles at that time, Eli Jacobs, and the head architect, Joseph Spear conceived the design for the ballpark. The design of the Orioles new ballpark was revolutionary because it was followed by nearly every team that has built a new ballpark since 1992. It was built similar to ballparks built in the early 1900s. Steel columns, beams and trusses were used, not concrete to support the ballpark. The facade consists of brick with arches and the low raked upper deck keeps the ballpark from looming over other buildings. Bleacher seats, a picnic area behind part of the centerfield fence and ivy growing on the hitters backdrop give the ballpark a nostalgia feel. The 1898 B&O Warehouse, eight stories high and several blocks long, is located beyond the seats in right field.

The Baltimore Orioles played their inaugural first game at Oriole Park at Camden Yards on April 6, 1992. The ballpark is nestled on the edge of downtown Baltimore. Many fans enter Camden Yards through the Eutaw Street entrance. This one time street is now a bustling place at the ballpark between the seating areas and the B&O Warehouse. It is a place where fans can enjoy ribs and barbeques, see plaques of great Oriole Hall of Famers, shop and enjoy the sights and sounds of the ballpark. It also provides an excellent location to congregate with other fans. From Eutaw Street fans see a sea of green seats in the main grandstand. Nestled below street level is the main playing field that prevents fans from having to walk up to get to the lower deck of the seating area. Large open air concourses allow people to easily move around Camden Yards. Escalators, ramps and elevators allow easy access to the upper deck.

The ballpark consists of a three tier grandstand that stretches from behind home plate, down the third base line around the left field foul pole, and down the first base line. All 48,190 seats are green replicating ones in bygone ballparks. Additional seating is located under the main score/video board in right center field. Fans can stand and watch the game from behind the 25 foot high out of town scoreboard in right field or in an area over looking the bullpens in left centerfield. A picnic area along with a small park like area with beautiful trees and flowers is located beyond centerfield.

After the 2000 season Camden Yards underwent some minor adjustments. The dimensions were increased from 318 to 320 feet (right), 400 to 406 feet (center), 410 to 417 feet (left-center), and from 333 to 337 feet (left). The latest improvement to Camden Yards was completed prior to the 2008 season as a new 24' x 74' LED videoboard replaced the original JumboTron. Almost every new park since 1992 has been built in the Camden Yards lineage of baseball-only intimacy: Jacobs Field in Cleveland, Coors Field in Denver and PNC Park in Pittsburgh. With its great setting in downtown Baltimore and excellent views of the city, fans still pack Camden Yards regularly.
