The Earl of Baltimore. Great manager who also entertained those of us who watched him guide the Orioles during the time they were the best organization in baseball. The Oriole Way. So glad he was able to attend and participate in his statue unveiling ceremony last season. RIP #4.Comment

Re: RIP Earl Weaver
Weaver was one of a handful of managers and coaches from the 1970s who had cigarette pouches sewn inside their jerseys in order to carry a pack of smokes around and light up when need be. It's not PC, but it's good collecting nostalgia.

Re: RIP Earl Weaver
There was an ariticle in Beckett Baseball Montly that had a story about a guy who bought a Weaver jersey for $1 at flea market (I think) that had a cigarette pouch in it. The buy knew it was authentic and got Weaver to sign the jersey at a show. Pretty cool story!Regards, Tony
