Looking at the radar it looks like it's kind of breaking up crossing the mountains. It may intensify when it hits the warmer air but I think they get it in. Probably have a delay or two.

That was my thoughts as well. It could re intensify due to hot part of the day but it doesn't look too bad right now. It's moving pretty slow as well.

I have tickets as well (part of my 13 game plan). I was considering whether I should try to exchange them. I assume if the game is canceled we would have a day night double header tomorrow.

Same here. I work tomorrow until 6 so would be unable to go to a DH. Unless they let season holders into the 2nd game? Seems unlikely though with this being a prime series.

Problem is if you are "iffy on the weather" and you only play the Dodgers once and you try to get it in and you play a few innings and cant get it in it really messes with the series the next day. I am in the just call it off group because you know the weather will be good over the weekend and the Dodgers obviously wont be back.

I hope that this doesn't happen:

Hammell pitches well, the Orioles hit early and take the lead, and it all gets wiped out for not going 5 full innings.

Do they do that any more? I thought a number of years ago they tweaked the rules, and now you generally suspend a game that has started but hasn't gone 4.5/5 innings, or is tied after five when the rains come. Nothing is wiped out, it's just continued at a later date.

I believe this is correct. The Reds and Phillies restarted a game the other night and played one inning before the Reds walked it off 1-0.

    • Westburg shouldn’t be, where are you seeing that?
    • So since Westburg is apparently still ROY eligible, Cowser and Westburg may project to be the best rookie combination since Fred Lynn and Jim Rice in 1975?  
    • There were several and I was one them. I'm  on record as saying I was one of his biggest Apologists . You should feel good about yourself as you were able to see that Means would be imploding before our very eyes( which was an opinion or a guess, which is what I did) as far as feeling bad for me? Dont I'm plenty good enough to know I wont be able to guess right every time 
    • Fantastic pickup by Elias and big kudos to O’Hearn for taking advantage of the resources to improve. He’s a great story. 
    • Given his injury history and what’s happening right now, Means may make more money as an Oriole next year than as a free agent. He may have to settle for league minimum as a FA but would do better than that in arbitration. Heck, unless he’s effective at least a little this year then the orioles might release him after the season to avoid paying more than league minimum. I hope Means recovers, very much so, but this scenario is possible imo.    ps. I guess I ignored the part where you said if Means thinks he is healthy. 
    • What I'd like to see in the next game Holliday plays, is for him to keep his eyes following through on the ball when he swings. In the last game I saw, he was yanking his head off the zone when he swung and couldn't see the bat to the ball. He was missing wildly and it wasn't even competitive. So, keep your eye on the ball! Follow all the way through! If your swing is so violent that it's yanking your head off the sight of the ball, then adjust your mechanics because you can't hit what you can't see!
    • What a great example of pedantic! Please tell us you meant to do that. I honestly can’t tell these days.
