Orioles remove ‘The Sun’ and Dempsey’s signs from Camden Yards

The Orioles removed two longtime noteworthy signs from Camden Yards on Thursday, taking down “The Sun” signage from above the center field scoreboard and the Dempsey’s Brew Pub sign on the B&O Warehouse.

The team said it’s opening the scoreboard space for sponsorship opportunities and that the future of the restaurant and its space are to be announced. In January, the Orioles replaced its longtime concession operator with a new company for the upcoming season.

The Baltimore Sun logo had been featured atop the ballpark’s scoreboard and in its clock since it opened in 1992, becoming closely associated with the iconic venue. The clock numbers that spelled out Baltimore Sun were being covered Thursday.
