The Baltimore Orioles originated as one of the eight charter members of the American League in 1901 as the Milwaukee Brewers. In 1902 the franchise moved to St Louis taking the nickname Browns. After 52 year in St Louis, the franchise was sold and moved to Baltimore Maryland. The new team would take on the name Orioles in honor of the official state bird of Maryland.

Prior to this there had been other major and minor league clubs using the Baltimore Orioles name, including the team that moved north in 1903, that would eventually become the New York Yankees
