MLB Classics: Video: NBC Sports: MLB 1971-World Series-Game 7: Pittsburgh Pirates @ Baltimore Orioles: Full Game

The Orioles blew great opportunities to put together a real dynasty in the 1970s and become the MLB team of the 1970s.  Yes, they won two World Series from 1966-71 and won three American League Championships and four AL Eastern Championships from 1966-73.  They could easily have accomplished so much more but instead they lost the 1969 World Series to the New York Mets, an inferior team even with their great pitching.  They then did not play up to their capabilities against the Pirates in the 1971 World Series.

About Derik Schneider

I’m an easy going guy who is never afraid to crack a joke. I’m almost always in a good mood, I believe the happier you are the better off you’ll be & the longer you’ll live. I believe in living life rather than being alive. Very hard to get me down. I tease because I care. I try to find humor in everything & everyone that I see. I tease anyone that I respect, care about, like, or love. If I’m not joking around with you, or teasing you, it is because I don’t know you well, don’t like you or you don’t mean a whole hell of a lot to me. I blog about a lot of different things, because I have a lot of different interests and knowledgeable about a lot of those areas. How knowledgeable I am, you can decide that for yourself by checking out my blog. And we can talk about what is what in an adult professional manner. And perhaps even learn things from each other that we didn’t know going in.
