The Baltimore Orioles (also known as "O's" and the "Birds") are an American professional baseball team based in Baltimore, Maryland. The Orioles compete in Major League Baseball (MLB) as a member club of the American League (AL) East division. As one of the American League's eight charter teams in 1901, the franchise spent its first year as the Milwaukee Brewers (unrelated to the current Brewers) before moving to St. Louis, Missouri in 1900s to become the St. Louis Browns. After 52 years in St. Louis, the franchise was purchased in November 1953 by a syndicate of Baltimore business and civic interests led by attorney and civic activist Clarence Miles and Mayor Thomas D'Alesandro Jr.

The Orioles adopted their team name in honor of the official state bird of Maryland. It had also been used by several previous major and minor league baseball clubs in Baltimore, including another AL charter member franchise also named the "Baltimore Orioles," which moved north in 1903 to eventually become the New York Yankees.
