Baltimore Orioles owner Peter Angelos passed away at the age of 94 after a period of illness, with his family expressing gratitude to the medical staff who cared for him. The family announced his wish for a private burial and suggested making donations to charity instead of sending flowers. Angelos had agreed to sell the Orioles in a $1.725 billion deal to a group led by David Rubenstein. Rubenstein, a Baltimore native and co-founder of The Carlyle Group, praised Angelos for his contributions to business and baseball. Maryland Governor Wes Moore also paid tribute to Angelos as a significant figure in Baltimore\'s history.
