With the trade deadline fast approaching, Baltimore played the last home game with guys like Jorge Lopez (the 2022 Orioles All-Star) and Trey Mancini, one of the most beloved players in recent history. Mancini hit a walkoff 20 days before against LA Angels (during the 10-game winning streak) but the baseball gods had a special moment for him.

July 28th is the Mo Gaba’s Day. A tribute for the Orioles and Ravens superfan who lost his battle against cancer in that day in 2020. Our 10th man, from the skies, helped the Orioles and his best friend, Mancini, with a inside-the-park Home Run in last Mancini’s hit at OPACY in an Orioles uniform. A moment for the ages. Baltimore won, 3-0.
