1996 ALCS (Orioles @ Yankees) Game Two [Orioles Tie ALCS]

[@Villazento]

That music during recap of game 1?

[@benntenn1693]

Hopefully Mountcastle, Mancini, Means, Rutschman, and Mullins can get us back to times like these soon

[@jonathanramirez7002]

And they Will do it in 1 week 😮

[@TetsuyaEyetoe]

Add in Gunnar Henderson.

[@Xavier11870]

You will get your wish 😂

[@jamespowell9008]

I remember that game and I am a orioles fan and I am from Baltimore. That was a bullshit call and it should have been fan interference and the hell with him being a kid.

[@johnnydoe6717]

It would have hit the top of the wall. Shouldn’t have been so nonchalant without. They got smoked in 5 games

[@jamespowell9008]

Bullshit and he would have caught that ball.The Orioles was robbed and that kid should have been put of the game and the batter called out.

[@cjones3710]

We all remember that call.

[@ryantrent2114]

This ALCS didn't even make it to Game 6. Was that really the kid's fault?

[@TL2354]

Orioles lost all of their home games in this series. Stop crying you loser

[@georgeford3687]

I was at game 4 of this series and even though they won this game it shook the Orioles throughout.

[@OroborusFMA]

Yet another thing we'll never see again: a daytime post-season game. The greed of baseball outweighs everything else now. Notable that Wells won this game - the Yankees would nab him and he'd be arguably the best pitcher on their 1998 championship team.

[@jasonnichols6164]

I still to this day maintain, if that f'ing Maier play hadn't happened, the O's woulda won Game 1 and after winning Game 2, gone home up 2-0. That play changed the momentum of this series.

[@underwriter100]

The O’s got what every road team wants at minimum: a split of the first two games & still lost every home game after that. The Great teams don’t fold after game 1. Also anyone who thinks the 96 Yanks would fold after losing the first two home games, should check the 96’ World Series vs Atlanta 😂

[@TL2354]

Nope. If the O’s win game 1 then Mariano isn’t used for 2 innings in Game 1 but he’s used in the 7th & 8th in Game 2 and the O’s don’t score 2 in the 7th and 1 in the 8th and they lose but why let facts get in the way of your retardation

[@hitmangfx7162]

Randy Myers in 1996 was MADDENING for Orioles fans to watch. I had forgotten he had to get pulled here. The following year though...lights out.

[@stevee231]

The entire 96 pitching staff was frustrating but were a joy to watch in 97. Ray Miller made a difference over Pat Dobson. One of the only times Angelo's meddling paid off as he forced the switch. That 97 staff was borderline dominant with a rotation of Mussina, Key, Erickson and Kamienicki and the pen of Myers, Orosco, Benitez (besides the alcs), Rhodes and Mills all pitching lights out. 97 was fun....96 was frustrating

[@briancalifornia1]

I never knew David Wells played for thew Orioles

[@cjones3710]

Yea PAngelos held on to him and Bobby Bo against some others judgment and they made a great aug sept.run

[@ryancox530]

Still hate Maier too this day lol

[@baierc]

One of my earliest baseball memories was Maier taking the ball from Tarasco....unbelievable. I rewatched the clip again a few minutes ago and thought for a sec "he was just a kid" before seeing him sitting on somebody's shoulders celebrating a couple minutes later. And then it was "bleep that kid" lol.

[@lupojohn21]

@@baierc @Ryan cox You do know the Orioles nearly drafted him? If they had, having him on your side would have meant all was forgiven.

[@hitmangfx7162]

I don't hate the kid, but the umps that allowed it should have been fired. They looked super foolish when the replay showed how obvious the play was. Realistically, the Orioles could have gone home up 2-0 in the series.

[@kanekoo6620]

Wells was a bit of a Yankee killer...of course, he was signed by the Yanks in the offseason after this and had a up-and-down 1997 then a really good year with the 1998 Yanks. He got traded for Clemens but later came back to the Yanks a second time...

[@hitmangfx7162]

He slayed the Indians in the Division series as well. The Oriole's starting pitching was dreadfully inconsistent the whole year (and Mussina was lackluster in the postseason).

[@MidnightTokenFloyd]

do you happen to have game 4 of this series

[@shotguner4258]

Most of the mid 90s Yankee roster was on steroids and got away with it until this day

[@TL2354]

Keep crying you loser

[@Nash55ppp]

Orioles haven't been back to the 🌎 series since 1983, thanks to the 12 year old "hero" kid Maier, he cost Baltimore that. The Yankees security should've went and stay in the arena that the fans can't be allow there in game 1.

[@underwriter100]

Yes and Jeffrey Maier also cost the O’s all 3 home games they lost to the Yanks too 🙄

[@Nash55ppp]

​@@underwriter100and the Orioles when a season later and lose to the Indians(now Guardians) at least the Cleveland fan(s) didn't get involved.

[@Ozziemints]

Bern Baby Bern!!!💪👍
