The Angelos family was a Greek-American family who rose to prominence in the early 20th century. They were best known for their ownership of the Baltimore Orioles baseball team.
The Angelos family patriarch, George Angelos, was born in 1897 in the village of Lakkoma, Greece. He immigrated to the United States in 1915 and settled in Baltimore, Maryland. George worked as a waiter and a bartender before opening his own restaurant in 1929. The restaurant was a success, and George soon became a prominent figure in the Baltimore Greek-American community.
In 1954, George Angelos purchased a minority stake in the Baltimore Orioles baseball team. He became the majority owner of the team in 1960, and he remained the owner until his death in 1996.
Under George Angelos's ownership, the Orioles became one of the most successful teams in Major League Baseball. The team won four World Series championships in the 1960s and 1970s, and they were consistently a contender in the American League East division.
George Angelos was a beloved figure in Baltimore. He was known for his generosity and his commitment to the city. He donated millions of dollars to local charities, and he helped to revitalize the downtown area.
George Angelos's son, Peter Angelos, inherited the Orioles ownership after his father's death in 1996. Peter continued his father's legacy of success, and the Orioles won two more World Series championships under his ownership.
The Angelos family has been a major force in Baltimore for over a century. They have owned the Orioles for over 60 years, and they have helped to make the city a better place to live. The Angelos family is a true Baltimore institution, and they will continue to be a part of the city's fabric for generations to come.
The Orioles Dynasty
The Orioles dynasty of the 1960s and 1970s is one of the most dominant periods in Major League Baseball history. The team won four World Series championships in a span of six years, and they were led by a core of Hall of Fame players.
The Orioles' success was built on a foundation of pitching. The team had a dominant starting rotation led by Jim Palmer, Mike Cuellar, and Dave McNally. The bullpen was also strong, led by closer Hoyt Wilhelm.
The Orioles' offense was also very good. The team was led by Brooks Robinson, who was one of the best third basemen in baseball history. Other key players included Frank Robinson, Boog Powell, and Paul Blair.
The Orioles' dynasty came to an end in the late 1970s, but the team remained a contender for many years after. The Orioles won another World Series championship in 1983, and they were in the playoffs as recently as 2014.
The Legacy of The Angelos
The Angelos family has left a lasting legacy on the city of Baltimore. The Orioles are one of the most popular teams in Major League Baseball, and they have been a major part of the city's culture for over 60 years.
The Angelos family has also been generous contributors to the Baltimore community. They have donated millions of dollars to local charities, and they have helped to revitalize the downtown area.
The Angelos family is a true Baltimore institution, and they will continue to be a part of the city's fabric for generations to come.
