Birds of a feather…finally flocking together?

August 28, 2008

The Orioles put out a press release this week announcing a “Ravens Rally” before the team’s game this Saturday against the Oakland A’s at Oriole Park. Complete with cheerleaders, mascots and the marching band, fans can “help the Orioles wish their neighbors good luck this season,” says the Orioles press release.

Baltimore Ravens President Dick Cass will also throw the ceremonial first pitch prior to the game and the first 15,000 fans age 15 and older will get a free tee-shirt with the Oriole Bird carrying a football and wearing a Ravens jersey.

Where did all the love come from? In the Ravens’ 12-year history here, the Orioles have never welcomed their neighbors to the south as warmly as this — not even the season after the Ravens won the Super Bowl.

Did somebody tell O’s owner Peter Angelos to start playing nice in the sandbox?
