Orioles finally get a crack at their long-time tormenters from New York

The Bronx Bombers were still the big boys on the block when the Orioles first got good in the early 1960s. The teams sparred as something like equals for decades, until the Yankees resumed their place atop the sport in the late 1990s. It seems right, then, that if the Orioles are to author a truly remarkable 2012, they must go through their white — make that pinstriped — whale in the American League Divisional Series, scheduled to begin tonight at Camden Yards.
