On April 2, 1976, the Orioles and A's swapped some big name players: Reggie Jackson & Ken Holtzman to Baltimore and Don Baylor & Mike Torrez to Oakland. It was big!
Reggie had a good season but the Orioles fell short in the AL East: .277, 27 HR, 82 RBI & 28 stolen bases. After the season, Jackson signed a big contract with the Yankees and you know the rest of the story.
