Jersey of the Game

Jersey of the Game-Luis Montañez

Luis Montañez played 93 games as an outfielder with the Orioles from 2008-2010. He was once recalled by the Orioles from the minor leagues and was late answering the call because he was taking a salsa dancing class. He concluded his career with the Chicago Cubs in 2011.

What’s the story? 

“I was chosen to run on the field with the Orioles when I was 7 years old, and picked Montañez’s jersey, and that’s why I have it.”
