Sunday Bird Droppings: The 25th anniversary of 2,131

Hello, friends.

A mark of fame for a famous person is if they only have to go by one name and if you say that, you know who they are. There are not many sports games where you can do the same. Those are usually more of a phrase. “The ___ Game.” Sometimes they are bad. The Mother’s Day Meltdown was bad. Sometimes they are good. The Chris Davis Pitching Game was fun.

Then there’s 2131. That is a famous game. At least to an Orioles fan who was old enough to experience it, that’s all you have to say.
