Rick Dempsey recalled joining the Yankees as a top catching prospect in 1973 and Thurman Munson's welcoming greeting. The Yankees captain died when his plane crashed near Canton Ohio, sparking a citywide tribute at Yankee Stadium and calls to retire Munson's No 15 as Baltimore and New York prepared for his funeral.

Will Orioles play 13 games in Washington DC

The question of whether new Orioles owner Edward Bennett Williams will schedule 13 games in Washington next season remains unsettled. Williams denies plans to move 13 home games to RFK but cites lease terms permitting such a move and says he will discuss the issue with Orioles officials, aiming to keep the team in Maryland if Baltimore remains supportive.
