They walk slower, squint more and often don't hear too well. But there's nothing wrong with the recollections of those 1966 Orioles who gathered at Camden Yards on Friday night in tribute to the team's first championship season.
Pitcher Dick Hall, 85, spoke of "the lesson we learned while celebrating having won the pennant: Drink the champagne and use the beer to squirt guys with, not the other way around." Jim Palmer, 70, recapped his 6-0 victory in Game 2 of the World Series over Sandy Koufax and the Los Angeles Dodgers, calling it "a big-boy moment" for a 20-year-old pitcher.
