Yes, Reggie was traded to the Orioles in April, 1976. He was in the final season of his contract and free agency had just begun. The owner of the Oakland Athletics, Charles Finlay, was not going to spend the money to keep his three time World Series championship team together and he began selling and trading his players at will. Reggie played the 1976 season with the Orioles and, shortly afterwards, signed as a free agent with the Yankees.
