Looks to me that it will move past by 9, but I am not a weatherman. It started raining about 2 hours earlier than expected and from the radar it looks like it is just hitting the middle of the storm now.

From weather.com

Rain starts at game time:

6pm : 60%

7pm : 70%

Accuweather is only a little more optimistic. Looks like a no.

If the Orioles need to play a standard DH on Saturday, it will Chen in Game 1 and Hamm in Game 2. If it's a Day/Night DH, it will Hamm in Game 1 and Chen in Game 2. That's my guess anyway.

Roch tweeted out an update from Bob Turk saying it was a 60-90 minute storm.

They are going to try to get it in. Otherwise they would have called it already. If you send everyone home late or start to play the game and can't get through five you put the teams in an even worse situation. Whoever makes those decisions obviously think they are going to be able to play tonight.

I'm pulling for a PPD so my ticket is not wasted. I have no interest in driving out to Baltimore at this point.

Why? You would be making it about the start time and would have practically any seat in the house!

Well Bob sure isn't looking at my RADAR image, going to rain hard until midnight.

Camden yards is in the cross hairs, just west of the city the rain may let up by 9-10

If I could be assured that it would clear up completely I would consider going. Rain and possibly more delays is not something I want to deal with between 10:00 and 1 or 2 in the morning and I'd be driving in from Washington, DC (about a 45 minute drive each way). Not to mention the friend I had going with me earlier has made other plans. I just assume swallow the loss.
