Six-page (including cover) program from Earl Weaver's final game September 19 1982 at Memorial Stadium in Baltimore. The 1982 season saw the Orioles engaged in a pennant race that came down to the last game of the season against the Milwaukee Brewers with the teams in a first-place tie. Milwaukee won the game 10-2 Hall of Famer Don Sutton outdueling Hall of Famer Jim Palmer Brewers Hall of Famer Robin Yount slugging two home runs and stars Cecil Cooper and Ted Simmons adding two more. Thus ended the Orioles' season and the career of the Manager at least temporarily as he came back and managed again in 1985 and 1986 and added one year at the helm of the Gold Coast Suns of the Senior Professional Baseball Association in 1989. The program appears in VG/EX condition some minor bends to the paper along with one spot of discoloration on the cover.
