Good Morning Birdland!
The Orioles were supposed to start a series in Detroit yesterday, but rain throughout the day postponed that game. So, instead, the Birds will play two against the Tigers today. Game 1 starts at 1:10, Game 2 at 6:10. That is a long day at the park for the players, coaches, team staff, stadium staff and reporters, but these organizations simply can’t afford to give up the gate of a weekend game, it seems.
These Tigers are the class of the American League at the moment, if only by mere percentage points. The area they really excel in is run prevention.
