Thursday Bird Droppings: Opening Day is one week away

Hello, friends.

There are now seven days remaining until the next scheduled Orioles game, which is Opening Day. One week from today, there will be real baseball! Unless there’s monsoon-like weather in Boston, where the Orioles open, in which case we’d get the disappointing Opening Day rainout, but that’s still better than the 2020 experience.

The Orioles played the Red Sox in a spring training game just last night. The offense did not show up, as has happened for a number of spring games, and the O’s lost, 2-0. The highlight for the O’s was Zac Lowther’s three scoreless innings in relief, including the inning he came into the game, where he inherited a bases loaded, nobody out jam and allowed no runs.
