During their weekend in Baltimore, MD, the Eyes of Hope Puppy
Club had a chance to visit Camden Yards Oriole Park, the home of the Baltimore
Orioles.
Before every Major League Baseball game, the National Anthem is
played. So what is so special about singing it at Oriole
Park? Well, for one, Baltimore is the birthplace of the Star
Spangled Banner. It was written by Francis Scott Key at
Fort McHenry. However, the most unique thing about singing
the National Anthem in Baltimore is when the crowd gets to the
verse "O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave;" the
"O" is emphasized by the "O"riole fans.
