Oriole Park at Camden Yards is credited with beginning the trend toward "retro ballparks" in the 1990s.   It was built on the site of the former Camden Station rail yards.  More than 55 million spectators have passed through its gates and bear witness that this is one of the most beloved venues of the National Pastime.

 The Anna/Dr Pepper Can takes a stroll down Eutaw Street between the ball park and the B&O Warehouse, which looms over right field.   The warehouse was incorporated into the design of the ballpark and today houses restaurants, stores and offices.   The warehouse has been hit on the fly only once -- a Ken Griffey, Jr. shot
in the Home Run Derby of the 1993 All-Star Game.

Although snow lays on the outfield grass in Camden Yards, the calendar cannot deny that in less than three weeks, Spring Training opens for the O's in Sarasota, Florida.
