Description

From the Rob Arra website:


"With the decline and eventual departure of two local teams - the NFL's Baltimore Colts and baseball's Washington Senators - the Orioles' excellence paid off at the gate, as the team cultivated a large and rabid fan base at old Memorial Stadium. The Baltimore faithful were rewarded by the Orioles winning the World Series in 1983. Cal Ripken, Jr. was named Most Valuable Player that same year, joining legendary greats Frank Robinson (1966) and Boog Powell (1970). Cal Ripken again won MVP honors in 1991, during the team's final season at Memorial Stadium.


(In this photo,) You are there with the Rob Arra Collection stadium crew, sitting along the first base line, for a spectacular day game in Baltimore. Cal Ripkin Jr. delivers a shot up the third base line. Rob Arra captures the moment in his panoramic stadium photograph "Who's at Bat". You can even see the in-motion ball as a streak above the third base coach."
