25 years at Camden Yards: Quotes from (and photos of) those who opened the park in 1992

Shortstop Cal Ripken Jr., on why the move from Memorial Stadium to Camden Yards worked so well: “It felt like baseball had been played here before and that’s what you were so worried about is that that rich history of baseball would be lost with us going to a new place. But this place, the design of it, felt like baseball had been played here before. So, it was sort of a continuation. And it didn’t take long to really get comfortable, that this was our home. I just remember the fan excitement and trying to suppress some of the adrenaline on a daily basis.”
