Today is the birthday of former Orioles Craig Worthington and Dave Huppert! Man, 12-year-old Stacey really thought Craig Worthington was going to be awesome. It's also the birthday of Tides hitting coach, Denny Walling.
On this day in 1993, the Orioles accidentally ended up with three players at third base at the same time. Oops. Here is the description from Baseball Reference:
With the bases loaded and one out, Mike Devereaux hits a fly ball which is trapped by Angels center fielder Chad Curtis, who throws home. Jeff Tackett, the baserunner on third, returns to the base after running halfway home. Brady Anderson, who was on second, advances to third. Chito Martinez, the baserunner on first base, rounds second and heads for third. Angels catcher John Orton walks to third base where he tags all three runners. Tackett is called out on a force, and Martinez is also called out, completing the rare inning-ending double play.
