Elkridge Woman Wins Orioles Contest

To celebrate the team’s 20 year-history in Camden Yards, the Orioles have been giving away prizes during the first 20 days of January—and an Elkridgean has been named a winner. 

Christina Eppinger of Elkridge won on Saturday, Jan. 14, according to an announcement from the Orioles on Twitter.

The prize? Four free tickets, a parking pass, and access to the Mid-Atlantic Sports Network and the Orioles Radio Network broadcast booths.

Purchasing season tickets for the 2012 season entered fans into the contest, which ends on Jan. 20.

The opening game is scheduled for April 6 at Camden Yards against the Minnesota Twins.

The 20-day contest is one of several activities to celebrate the Orioles' 20-year history at Camden Yards.

Six bronze statues will be installed in left field in honor of Orioles Hall of Famers, according to AOL's Sporting News. The sculptures will be dedicated at six separate games throughout the season, according to a statement from the Orioles.

The Orioles also announced that there will be numerous enhancements to the stadium itself for its 20-year anniversary, including murals in stairwells, concession stand upgrades and new flooring.
