Over a 25-year period from the sixties into the eighties, the Baltimore Orioles were considered the model major league franchise. The Oriole Way, the popular term used to describe the organization's philosophy during this period, served the Orioles very well, leading to multiple division titles, pennants, and World Series championships. The last world championship team of that era, the 1983 Orioles, left a greater and more enduring legacy than any of the previous seasons or teams. Oriole Magic: The O's of '83 recalls this great season, resurrecting the scores of memories and characters elemental to the story. Candid and colorful interviews with every key member of the 1983 Orioles are integrated with a bracing narrative of the events of the season. The story lines from 1983 are numerous. Hall of Famer Jim Palmer won his last major league game in 1983, including a record-breaking win in the World Series. Second-year player Cal Ripken played his first full year at shortstop. Joe Altobelli, who replaced the legendary Earl Weaver, became just the ninth big-league manager to win a pennant in his first year. Rookie Mike Boddicker struck out 14 batters in the divisional play-offs, tying a record. Oriole Magic: The O's of '83 is a lasting tribute to a legendary Orioles team.
