Overview
- The Orioles announced a delay after consulting Major League Baseball and the National Weather Service, and continued bad weather led the team to postpone the Monday night game.
- Baltimore set the makeup as a split-admission doubleheader for Wednesday, September 23 with Game One at 1:35 p.m. ET and Game Two at 6:35 p.m., and gates opening at 12:30 p.m. and 5:30 p.m. respectively.
- The club said separate tickets will be required for each game, a change that affects fans' entry times and attendance plans at Oriole Park at Camden Yards.
- The rescheduling could alter both clubs’ pitching and roster decisions because the matchup carries late-season AL Wild Card significance and leaves little room for further makeups.
- Earlier reports noted Trey Yesavage was expected to return from the injured list for Toronto and Baltimore planned to start Shane Baz, but those plans may be adjusted under the revised doubleheader schedule.
