The Orioles have postponed today's game. From Sun reporter Eduardo A. Encina:
After a morning full of considering multiple ways to play tonight’s Orioles game against the Chicago White Sox in Baltimore, the club has decided to postpone the game after consulting with Major League Baseball and local government and police authorities.
No makeup date has been announced – the Orioles also postponed Monday’s series opener against the White Sox following growing unrest in the city following the death of Freddie Grey – and fans are being encouraged to keep their tickets and parking passes. -
