Two Orioles fans have named their kids Camden and Yardley

[brooks1083]

My folks named me Brooks in 1983, 11 days before the last WS Championship. It was also the year Brooksie was inducted into the HoF. If we ever have a boy, we're planning on naming him Camden. As it stands right now, I'm 0-3 on boys.

I was off on a barely-related tangent replying to Old#5Fan, and looking up the details of Curt Welch's $15,000 slide that ended the 1886 World Series. The battery for the Chicago White Stockings was comprised of Hall of Famers King Kelly and John Clarkson. Do you think Kelly Clarkson's parents are big 19th century baseball fans?

my grandparents named two of my uncles Memorial and Stadium.

Chipper Jones named his kid Shea ,after Shea Stadium. Stadium for a name ,not a big fan.

I never went to Shea, but wasn't it a generic concrete thing hard up against the airport? There must be some kind of backstory there.

It was bad. i remember as a kid driving down from Upstate NY and sitting in the upper deck. That was high and steep.; Not a nice ballpark. Airplanes flying overhead. Here is the Chipper backstory.
