Orioles going for the four game sweep after being swept for the first time in two years by the Cardinals. And yet another weather delay this week, but at least it's before the game gets started. It's Kyle Bradish versus Garrett Crochet on the mound today.

We are going to play Hays until he gets his avg above the Mendoza line. It will help his trade value.

Apparently, he deleted the tweet lol.

For those who have MLB.TV, the Norfolk game is on now.  I've been watching beginning this inning.  I picked a good time, as Kjerstad and Daniel Johnson have singles and Haskin walked. They're loaded.

[Greg Pappas]

Nick Maton singled in two runs to tie it in the top of the 4th.  Maverick Handley crushed a liner to third (107 EV), but the 3B snared it and doubled Haskin off third.  FWIW, Daniel Johnson is playing exceptional baseball at AAA with OPS around .980 with 9 HR's.  He's going on 29-years old and has had a career minor league OPS of .795.  So, it's not likely he has a future here, but one never really knows.

He’s hitting like .320 with a 45% hard-hit rate since he came back from his injury, so I guess that won’t take too long if he keeps it up.

Terrin Vavra just homered again... crushed to CF. 5-3 Tides.  Norby follows with a single and stolen base.  Kjerstad walked.  No Holliday or Mayo today.

I hope we can get it in.  Hard to get a 4 game sweep against any team.  Even one as bad as the WS.

Whats up with the Tides uniforms? is that their city connect?

Huh, Hays trade value. Imagine that.

I think we dodge a bullet tomorrow (I'm going).   Game is at 1:05.   Looks like serious line of thunderstorms will come through Baltimore between 5 and 7 pm.   Game should be well over by then.
