Baltimore Orioles The Baltimore Orioles are a professional baseball team based in Baltimore, Maryland. The Orioles are a member of the Eastern Division of Major League Baseballs American League. From 1992 to the present, the Orioles have played in Oriole Park at Camden Yards. The "Orioles" name originates from the bird of the same name. They are nicknamed "the Os", a shortened version of the Orioles name, and "the Birds". One of the American Leagues eight charter franchises, the club was founded in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1901. Then the Milwaukee Brewers (not to be confused with the current Milwaukee Brewers who were a 1969 expansion team), the team moved to St. Louis in 1902 and became the St. Louis Browns. It was not until 1954 that the team moved to Baltimore and became the Orioles.
