The ownership of Cal Ripken Jr.’s regal Reisterstown estate has gone from one Orioles great to another.
This past weekend, Orioles center fielder Adam Jones — a pending free agent — purchased the immaculate 25-acre estate previously owned by Ripken, according to a report in The Athletic.
Jones was the winning bidder on Ripken’s estate during an auction conducted Saturday morning at the property, according to the report, before playing in both games of a doubleheader against the Tampa Bay Rays at Camden Yards.
The purchase, however, shouldn’t be any indication that Jones is planning on remaining in Baltimore beyond this season, according to the report.
