Good morning, Camden Chatters.
OK, Orioles fans, I want to hear you one last time:
O’Daaaaay O’Day O’Day O’Daaay! O’Daaaay! O’Daaaay!
After 15 seasons in the big leagues, Darren O’Day announced his retirement from baseball yesterday, wrapping up a productive career for the charismatic right-hander, much of it spent in Baltimore.
O’Day will always be fondly remembered in Birdland for his performance on the field and his personality off of it. He was one of the Orioles’ most effective relief pitchers ever, posting a tidy 2.40 ERA and remarkable 0.994 WHIP in in seven seasons with the club — including an All-Star 2015 campaign — and making the sixth-most appearances (391) in O’s history.
