Drungo probably knew that, but doubtful many others did (definitely including me). That is a looonngg day of baseball.

The Orioles need to play at least two games tomorrow that's for sure. I am going to start having oriole with draws here pretty soon.

I had 2 people ask me that that today already.

Can't they just schedule the ultra rare triple header?

Give teams 30 man rosters.

I am not sure "moving" this game is as easy as it sounds. I believe the White Sox would have to approve, along with MLB and others (TV, Union???). I also wonder if the minor league fields are up to ML standards (this is not a put down, just a thought). Maybe the O's and Sox leaders will tour a minor league facility today to get a feel. I think they try to get a game in tomorrow at 1, be a home team at a DH in Chicago, and postpone the third game unless it is necessary at the season's conclusion.

I doubt the TV networks and MLBPA would have the ability to block a decision made by the commissioner's office. Likewise I doubt Manfred would proceed with any solution without complete buy-in from the White Sox and Orioles. This situation is tragic on many levels and transcends a mere game, but baseball needs to be played somewhere beginning tomorrow, or IMO Manfred will have failed in his first real test.

Manfred is really showing his lack of leadership over the last 24 hours.

The 1st game: 2:03 (17 runs scored)

The 2nd game: 1:56

The 3rd game: 1:01 (F/6, darkness)

Three games played in under 5 hours. Most extra-inning games these days takes more than that. Baseball was a very different sport in 1920. Not only there will not be another triple-header, double-headers will become unheard-of soon.

Just saw this. I wonder what they are going to do about the home tickets?

I wonder if they have swapped series and one of their home series will be played at OPACY later.

I would be shocked if that wasn't the case.

Still can't believe it is closed to the public. That will be crazy to watch!
