The 2005 Baltimore Orioles season was the 105th season in Baltimore Orioles franchise history, the 52nd in Baltimore, and the 14th at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. They failed to improve on their 78–84 (.481) record from the previous year with a 74-88 record, and missed the postseason for the 8th straight season. The team started off hot, compiling a record of 42 wins and 30 losses while spending 62 days in first place in the AL East. After June 23, the team started slipping on the way to a losing record and manager Lee Mazzilli's dismissal in early August.
