The Quest

The Baltimore Orioles have been in town since '54 and have had over 900 men don their uniform. My goal is to obtain a signed card of each player. If you have something I need, or see something you want, don't be shy, we can make a deal.

Upgrading

While looking on eBay for my Albert Belle autograph I came across A Brian Bass Orioles auto. Sort of.

OK, he's not in an Orioles uniform but the card lists him as an Oriole. One out of two ain't bad. He never had a base card produced as an Oriole and only one other autograph.

Bass played in five games for the Birds in 2008 and 48 last season with decent results. He recorded six victories and averaged more than a strikeout an inning while in town. He was granted free agency in the off-season and signed with the Pittsburgh Pirates. His 2010 campaign has been pretty bad, spending more time in the minors than with the big club.
