Question by oporto2: When and why were the Baltimore Orioles called the Nick K’s?
I was browsing through Wikipedia, looking up World Series scores, and noticed the 1969 Series where the New York Mets beat the Baltimore Orioles. In the intro and in the box scores, however, the Orioles are called the Nick K’s. Wikipedia makes no mention of the Nick K’s on their Oriole’s page, so I’m just wondering. When and why were the Baltimore Orioles called the Nick K’s?

I have never heard them called the Nick K’s. One of their current outfielders is named Nick Kiprios (sic).
***** My bad! Nick Markakis plays for the O’s. Nick Kiprios was a hockey player. DUH!****
