Summary
- The Baltimore Orioles finished with the best record in the regular season for the first time since 1925.
- On the night of July 3, Oriole Park was burned down due to a fire. The Baltimore Orioles quickly arranged to move into a temporary home, Municipal Stadium for the remainder of the season. Due to the large crowds and motivated by the Orioles success, the City of Baltimore chose to renovate Municipal Stadium and it would become the Orioles permanent home.
