The Baltimore Orioles are celebrating their 60th Year Anniversary this season. If there's been one constant throughout this rich franchise, it's the flare for the dramatics at the closer position. Decade after decade there's a handful of closers that keep you on the edge. Whether they convert the save, or not, it's never easy, and it may not be pretty. Even some of the "great" single-season closers of the franchise have sent fans to the emergency room. I realize not every team has/had that one consistent closer they can rely upon in the call of duty season after season, but Orioles closers have been notorious for keeping it too close for comfort, especially recently. Some of those "stress" relievers are at the top of the list in single-season saves, but their numbers make you wonder how they got the job done.  Here are just SOME of the single-save leaders..........We want to know your thoughts or memories of the past Orioles closers.

*VOTE AT THE BOTTOM FOR THE CLOSER THAT HAD THE BIGGEST FLARE FOR THE DRAMATICS IN THEIR RESPECTIVE SEASONS*
