Former Baltimore Orioles pitching great Mike Flanagan has
joined the Mid-Atlantic Sports Network (MASN) as a color commentator for the
2010 season.

His first game will be an April 15 contest between the Orioles

MASN, which is co-owned by the Orioles, televises games of
both the Baltimore
club and those of its partner in the regional sports net, the Washington
Nationals.

Flanagan has been with the Orioles for over 30 years as a
player, coach, exec and broadcaster. He was part of the World Series winning
1983 ball club and won the Cy Young Award in 1979.
