Chris Davis not worried about reception he gets when he comes down orange carpet for Orioles' home opener

Orioles first baseman Chris Davis doesn’t know how the fans will react when he jogs down the orange carpet during Opening Day introductions, but he said he’s more excited than apprehensive about the opportunity to begin playing in front of the home crowd.

“No matter what reception I get, it’ll be one that I’ve had before, which I think is interesting,’’ he said Thursday morning. “I’m excited to be here … to play at home in front of our own fans … to sleep in my own bed and see my family and get to enjoy this day.
