The tributes to Adam Jones will reach a crescendo Sunday as the Orioles’ face of the franchise for more than a decade will play what will likely be his final game in the uniform with which he’s become synonymous.
If the past two nights were any indication, Jones will receive a standing ovation before every at-bat. Fans will make signs. They will chant his name. Some might cry, because saying goodbye is difficult.
“I imagine there’s going to be plenty of crying in baseball on Sunday,” said Heather Linington-Noble, a Canton resident who has a 29-game plan and plans to attend Sunday’s game.
