When you think of the Buck Showalter Era of Orioles baseball, this is the player you think of. Yes, we had guys like Chris Davis, Manny Machado, JJ Hardy, Nick Markakis, Nelson Cruz, and many others, but out of all of them, AJ stands out the most. He was both the leader on the field as well as off of it. One of the last great everyday players in modern baseball. Tonight, the current Orioles need that type of swagger that he brought in order to maintain the AL East lead. WE CAN DO THIS!

Orioles always had great Centerfielders, and I was blessed to watch Paul Blair in Memorial Stadium. I'm real happy Adam Jones retired an Oriole and is part of that great tradition. I really thought JJ Hardy was another from Adam's era who exemplified that team. Talent and class, the both of them.

I will remember Adam Jones for a lot of things, but one of my favorite non-baseball moments was he and Robert Andino walking around New York slapping Orioles stickers on everything saying, "put some Birds on it."

MY FAVORITE ORIOLE

Great ball player, even greater person. Thank you, Adam. Glad you were retired as an Oriole. Congrats man!

My favorite Oriole.Meant him in Tampa nicest guy you ever want to meet. Really down to earth. Congrats to him for who he is and what he does.

Adam Jones meant winning baseball. Will forever be one of the best to ever play for my generation. What a career. What a legacy.

My all time Favorite Oriole

There are no words to express how happy it makes me to see Adam Jones retire as an Oriole. I wish him and his family nothing but the best as he moves into the next phase of life!!!!

Adam was a central part of the team I grew up following- I always loved how he touched the state flag patch whenever he crossed home plate - so glad he’s back to retire as an O

A good man, great Oriole. Thank you, Sir. 👍

As a life long Orioles Fan, I bleed black and orange, Adam Jones was perhaps not the leader we deserved...but he was the leader we needed. I will forever remember AJ #10 and thank him for all he did on the field and even more importantly what he did for the community of Baltimore and Maryland (and beyond). He is a HoF in my book.

Love ADAM JONES! A gentleman atw! Classy and kind!

God bless this gentleman!! Thank you for reppin the 4 1 0 Adam Jones a true Oriole 💯💯

You will always be an Oriole adam thank you so much for the fun you brought this team happy retirement adam

Adam had a huge impact on Baltimore. He was the right man at the right time.

Adam and his wife used to come into a restaurant I worked at in Baltimore. Both incredibly kind and down to earth people. Wish them the best.

My favorite Oriole of all time. Thank you for everything Adam Jones

He is the greatest pure Oriole since Cal Ripken Jr. The face of the 2010s in Baltimore and a master of the Orioles Way. #ThankYou10

Great to see Adam retire as an Oriole. Great player and great person! Thanks Adam!

Adam pure class, great athlete and a pie to the face! Thanks for all the great memories! Happy retirement and blessings to you and yours! Go O's!

Thank you Adam Jones, my Son gave Adam Jones the Belt we made that night. My son is 17 years old now and still loves that moment. ( the belt help support children with autism) #beltway95sports We are currently working on a new belt for the team in time before the playoffs begin. #beltway95sports with a cause

That’s awesome!! 🧡🖤🧡🖤💙💙💙⚾️⚾️⚾️

Let's get a win tonight for Adam!

Damn, I'm tearing up watching this.

Love you Adam jones❤

Many great memories from this Era of orioles baseball. I watched every night with my cousin and a buddy. Both of them are gone now way too young. I look back and remember how much joy we had just sitting on the couch with a couple of beers and the o's. Thanks for always being a stand up guy Adam Jones.

I’m 33, so Jonesy will always be special for me, very happy he can retire an Oriole. Appreciate everything you have done and continue to do for Baltimore Mr. Jones aka Captain America

Dude was an orioles legend. As a met fan he was the first player from another team i really learned to appreciate

As it should be! Welcome home AJ!!

This gave me goosebumps

Mr Jones if you see this. My name is Tyler when I was 16 I watched you at my first mlb game when the Os played the Tides in spring 2011 at Tides stadium in Norfolk. All the other players refused to stop and sign autographs after the game you were the only one that did. And I will say as I said to you then. Thank you Mr Jones

Congarts to Mr. Jones. As a Yankee fan, his time with the Orioles was very similar to the Don Mattingly years in NYC. Both were great players on not so good teams most of their careers. Also both class acts on and the off field. Next stop for Adam is hopefully a successful post playing career. Maybe as a future on the field "Skipper," GM/Front Office or even a career as a TV analyst. Once again Congrats.

Mr. Oriole for so many years.. Thanks for the memories..LGO’s

Definitely choked up. What a mensh. So much soul!

I loved going to so many games to watch Adam play. He will always be one of our all-time greats. Go O's!!!

Always my favorite player killed me when he was traded it’s awesome to see him retire as an oriole tonight and maybe one day we’ll see the 10 will cal ripken’s 8 and Jim palmer’s 22 in left field

Adam Jones did a lot for team and town

Orioles legend Adam Jones!

CONGRATS ADAM JONES ON YOUR RETIREMENT CEREMONY

yay

Wow 😢

The pied man

Wave that baby bye bye!!!!

I’m not crying, you’re crying

my cats named Jonesy for a reason

My goat Now CLAIM THE EAST

Can’t believe they would even dare to shame someone like Adam by throwing Flaherty out there on the night he retires. Bad enough they’re already choking away the division lead and they got absolutely humiliated by the pitcher they gave away to get Flaherty, but now they have to disrespect one of the greatest CFs in Orioles history like this by not even trying to win the actual game?

I’d rather see Ryan Flaherty today than Jack. Nothing against him personally. I hope he brings his “A” game. I’ll be there tonight, wearing an ancient #10 T-shirt and black Os jersey

Yeah too bad jack Flaherty pitching so it’s gonna end in heartbreak

I'd like to thank Arozarena in advance for acting like a clown as usual and taking the attention away from a real ballplayer on his special weekend

Good man, always was. Enjoy chillin dude, God bless you and your family Adam

My favorite player ever. Love Adam Jones man

I’ve seen enough, retire this man’s number asap
