When the Orioles were the St. Louis Browns, they played in only one World Series, the 1944 matchup against their Sportsman's Park tenants, the Cardinals. The Orioles beat the Texas Rangers in the inaugural American League Wild Card game. Where for the first time two Wild Card teams faced each other during postseason play.
