2019 Hall of Fame inductee Mike Mussina returns to Camden Yards to throw out first pitch

Former Orioles pitcher Mike Mussina threw out the ceremonial first pitch for the team that launched his Hall of Fame career.

Mussina, who played 10 of his 18 seasons with the Orioles, will be inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame on July 21.

His hat will not bear the Orioles logo, though, nor will it have the logo of the New York Yankees, where he pitched eight seasons after leaving the Orioles.

The decision to go logo-less took Mussina about 15 minutes, he said.

“I can't decide between the two organizations,” Mussina said.
