Double-A Chesapeake has a new name and a number of familiar faces from last year

The hardest thing to get used to in the Orioles farm system this season for me is that the Double-A affiliate Bowie Baysox have rebranded themselves as the Chesapeake Baysox to have more connection to the greater region. They still play in Bowie. It’s just that now they’re calling themselves Chesapeake. I’m sorry in advance for any time I forget and do the old name out of habit this season.

The freshly-minded Chesapeake club received some viral fame for an alternate uniform design for the “Chesapeake Oyster Catchers.” The design spread far and wide along with some juvenile chuckling over a resemblance to part of a woman’s anatomy.
