Owner Peter Angelos collapsed in 2017 due to the failure of his aortic valve, and established a trust with his wife, Georgia, and two sons Louis and John as co-trustees to manage the family's assets.

During the question-and-answer session with reporters, John once again stated that the Orioles would not leave Baltimore as he had in previous rebukes to news of the lawsuit, and controversially invoked Martin Luther King Jr. Day to dodge questions about his future role with ownership of the team.

When the hedge fund that owns The Baltimore Sun, based in New York City, wants to open their books, I guess we’ll take a look at that.

Spring training standout Franchy Cordero, who failed to make the Orioles opening day roster, hit two home runs in the series.
