Longtime Baltimore Orioles owner Peter Angelos dead at 94
He sold the team in a far better position talent-wise than it was during his tenure as owner. The Orioles' future is bright.
BALTIMORE -- Peter Angelos, owner of a Baltimore Orioles team that endured long losing stretches and shrewd proprietor of a law firm that won high-profile cases against industry titans, died Saturday. He was 94.
Angelos had been ill for several years. His family announced his death in a statement thanking the caregivers "who brought comfort to him in his final years."
Angelos' death comes as his son John is in the process of selling the Orioles to a group headed by Carlyle Group Inc. co-founder David Rubenstein. Peter Angelos' public role diminished significantly in his final years. According to a lawsuit involving his sons in 2022, he had surgery after his aortic valve failed in 2017.
