Version: 1971 Orioles Postseason Road Uniform 2a

This is the 1971 Baltimore Orioles Postseason Road Uniform Set. The Orioles originally wore the uniform in Game 3 of the ALCS in Oakland when they captured the AL crown and Games 3, 4, (1st night WS game in history...my Dad & I watched G4 until I had to go to bed since I was in 4th Grade), and 5 in Pittsburgh during the 71 World Series. I tried to be as authentic as possible using Bill Henderson's program, "Game Worn MLB Jersey Guide", original color photos of the 71 WS in Pittsburgh and my 1971 WS Highlights Video. It had 2 color names and block numbers in orange on black. In the beginning of 1971, the Orioles used a double knit home jersey alternating with their old flannel one as seen in the 69 & 70 WS, and their current flannel road uni as seen also in the 69 & 70 Fall Classics. In the 71 All-Star Game and after they consisting wore their double-knit home set. They received this double knit road set to appear in Game 3 of the ALCS in Oakland. The Birds wore it again during 3 games of the World Series in Pittsburgh. That was it...they received a comparable new set in the beginning of the 1972 Season with the orange sleeve stripe again on the bottom.

I want to thank KC and the other initial uniform modders for ALL their work and especially Stecropper for ALL the time he spent and is spending with me on the telephone tutoring me in doing modding for MVP.

If you have ANY questions at all, PLEASE pm me! Enjoy another uniform from the 1971 Season!
