Balt Sun: With playoff bye, Orioles will soon receive 5 straight days off — as many as the last 8 weeks combined: ‘It’s huge’

[Chris B]

Do we know when the playoff schedule is announced? Assume Sunday evening?

[Steve55]

They need to be the early game with the concert that night at M&T.

I’ve got a flight that lands at BWI next Sunday at 1 - just hoping for a late afternoon first pitch.

Both leagues play Saturday. Then NL plays on Monday. Likely a 4:30/8:00 set up for the AL. We would probably get the 4:30 & Hou get the night game.

Weather.com says 72% chance of rain on Saturday...  wasn't the weather also lousy for the 2012 and 2014 playoff games?

I saw rain for the morning and then after midnight.

I'm just happy we can put the Orioles and playoffs in the same conversation.

Anybody know what's happening at the team workout tomorrow?  Tickets are free, and it's supposed to be a nice day, but I'm probably not too interested in seeing players stretch their hamstrings for two hours.

I think most of us here are more than just "happy to be here" fans but I get your point. It's nice to be paying attention and even have that nervous feeling in your gut this time of year.

Thought I saw live BP on the docket.

They practiced last night around 6. They are supposed to play a simulated game this week.

Ugh, I remember that long rain delay in game 1 on Sunday night in 2012.

That was brutal, wall to wall people

Weather.com now is now forecasting light rain in the morning, and clouds in the afternoon.  Hopefully that holds.

 

But it's also looking like there's going to be overlap between Saturday's game and the Billy Joel/Stevie Nicks concert at M&T.  Fox is broadcasting the ALDS games, and they have college football scheduled on both Fox and FS1 at 1:00 (including the Maryland vs. OSU game).  So likely a 4:00 or 4:30 start for the Orioles?  I think the concert is at 7:00, so if you're going to the concert and bought a parking pass, I'm guessing you're SOL.

Looks like I was wrong:

We can't wait to see you, Birdland! Saturday's game will start at 1 p.m.
