A request
Good morning, everyone!
I was wondering if anyone had access to a box score--with player uniform numbers--from the Orioles vs Cuba exhibition game played in Havana in March 1999. Barring that, I was looking for photographs of Willis Otanez, who played 3B for the Orioles in that game.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Re: A request
Mark,
Sorry, I didn't read close enough before posting the reply.
The Baseball Almanac lists him as wearing #24 on opening day, April 5th, is there reason to believe that he changed his number between the exhibition and opening day?

Re: A request
Mark, I'm not sure of this helps, but through an Orioles source (not Jeremy Ferfel..lol) I was able to obtain the locker nameplates from Spring Training 1999 (Ripken, Murray, Clark, etc.) and the Otanez nameplate among the group has him wearing uniform # 1...........

Re: A request
That's what I was hoping...I have a #1 Otanez Orioles 1999 road jersey that I have been trying to confirm (as much as it could be) as the Cuba Game jersey...
Thanks!

Mark: If the Otanez nameplate would enhance your collection at all, just e-mail me your mailing address & its yours!
