Orioles make $5 million pledge to support Baltimore students; John Angelos bristles at questions about family ownership’s future
Orioles CEO and Chairman John Angelos used Martin Luther King Jr. Day as an occasion to announce a significant investment from his team toward students in Baltimore. He also used the holiday as a reason to take umbrage with questions regarding the operations of the club. Alongside Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott on the sixth floor of the B&O Warehouse at Camden Yards, Angelos announced that the Orioles are pledging $5 million to the CollegeBound Foundation, a Baltimore-based nonprofit that helps the city’s public school students get into and complete college.
