The Orioles turned a triple play today. I have seen two triple plays in person – both in 1979. The one by Oakland was so fast they could have gotten 4 or 5 guys out. As I recall, it was the first game their second baseman, Mickey Klutts, played at second.

This is the 15th triple play in Baltimore Orioles history. https://t.co/uO0j54Yzsy
