This time, the 1988 season reminder comes to us from the Baltimore Orioles favorite son Cal Ripken Jr.and his Twitter account.
The Iron Man joined Twitter less than a month ago, but he looks to be having a good time sharing pictures of his dog, helping feed hungry kids, and discussing memories of his time in the Big League. And, yesterday, he shared a Tweet about an odd moment in 1988.
In 1988, the Orioles were bad. Really bad. Losing 23 out of 24 games bad. In the past two seasons, the Orioles and Tigers have battled for the bottom.
