Clearly, the Orioles should be praying for a little rain

(Patrick Semansky / AP) The forecast for tonight's game is pretty good, which -- if very recent history serves -- will be pretty bad for the Orioles.
The O's entered Thursday with the best home record in the major leagues at 13-5, despite weather that has been consistently cold, windy, rainy or all of the above. It's been pretty miserable and it has definitely impacted the club's sagging early attendance, but don't wish too hard for a beautiful weekend.
