What a difference two weeks make.
When the Orioles and Tampa Bay Rays were originally scheduled to play April 24 in the game that was postponed to create Saturday's doubleheader, the hosts were reeling and had little interest in waiting out the weather to see if they could play around the rain.
Two weeks later, buoyed by a four-game winning streak and sensing a chance to attack a makeshift Rays bullpen, they waited out thunderous sheets of rain and a hailstorm during a 79-minute delay in the sixth inning to play again.
That they ultimately lost, 10-3, to split the twin bill was a reminder of the brand of baseball that dragged them to such depths in the first few weeks of the season.
