 FACT: In the episode "Americanization of Machiko" which was dated 4  August 1953, Rusty says that he was in AAA ball before he went to  war in the Pacific. He also says that before he went, everyone  wanted him, Yankees, Orioles, etc. The Orioles did not come back to  Baltimore under the Oriole name until 1954. There was a AAA ball  club called The Orioles, but they were in The International League.
