Happy # 68 Eddie Murray




We say happy birthday to Eddie Murray, one of the Orioles' greats.      He was born in LA on this day in 1956.

Eddie broke in 1977 and turned into one of the most consistent hitters in major league history:  .287 career batting average, 504 HR, 3,255 hits and 1,917 RBI.

Murray was a key piece of the teams that played in the 1979 and 1983 World Series.   He hit 2 HR in game 5 of the 1983 World Series to clinch the title for Baltimore.
