Brandon Hyde was overcome with emotion Dec. 17 when he was introduced as the 20th manager in the history of the Baltimore Orioles.
That type of passion should bode well with the local fan base.
Hyde also has a sense of history and was honored that Baseball Hall of Famer Brooks Robinson sat in the front row amid a standing-room-only crowd in the auxiliary clubhouse at Camden Yards.
Hyde talked about the pictures of former managers Earl Weaver and Cal Ripken Sr. that adorn his office and what it means to be part of a storied organization like the Orioles.
