| Octobers 16, 1969 The Baltimore Orioles are MLB's 1969 World Champions! The Orioles  defeated the New York Mets 10-4 and won the World Series 4 games to 1. The combination of Baltimore power and New York fielding misques were just too much for the Mets to overcome. Paul Blair hit 2 homeruns and Dave May added a key, pinch hit, 3 run homer to lead the Oriole hitting attack. 4 New York errors led to 5 unearned runs scored against them.The Mets kept coming back in the early innings but May's homerun in the 6th was the final blow. The Orioles Tom Phoebus threw 3 shutout innings of relief, allowing starter Dave McNally to get the win despite a poor pitching performance. Baltimore 3rd baseman Brooks Robinson was named the Series MVP. In 23 PA he hit .500 with 2 HR and 6 RBI. |
