Weaver, who had led the O’s to four American League titles and the 1970 World Championship, replaces the fired Joe Altobelli who won a world championship in his first year with the club. In the 105 games remaining, ā€˜Earl of Baltimore’ will guide the team to a 53-52 record, and will retire for good after next season when the O’s finish in seventh place.
