The 1974 Baltimore Orioles season involved the Orioles finishing 1st in the American League East with a record of 91 wins and 71 losses.

Much of the success of the team can be attributed to its infield. Bobby Grich (2B), Mark Belanger (SS) and Brooks Robinson (3B) each led the American League for their positions in assist.
