As the cool kids are now fond of saying, we are SO back. Actual Opening Day for the Orioles is still a month and four days away, but starting today the Grapefruit League will be under way between now and then and nearly every day in that time will have exhibition games that will hopefully get everyone tuned up for the season.
This first spring game this afternoon against the Red Sox offers what will be an unfortunately rare treat for Orioles fans. The Orioles-owned television network is actually bothering to televise it. This is one of the seven games that will be televised.
