The 1892 Baltimore Orioles season was the first season that the professional baseball team known as the Baltimore Orioles competed in the National League, following the demise of the American Association. In a split season schedule, the Orioles finished last in the first half of the season and 10th in the second half. Overall, the team had a record of 46–101, worst in the 12-team National League. Note that the 19th-century Orioles franchise is not the Baltimore Orioles franchise that has competed in the American League since 1954.
