The Orioles’ scheduled series finale against the Boston Red Sox on Monday has been postponed due to forecasted inclement weather.
The teams will make up the game on May 17 on a mutual off day prior to the Orioles’ next series at Fenway Park on May 18-20.
The third Monday in April is Patriots Day in New England and the annual running of the Boston Marathon coincides with an early 11 a.m. start for the Red Sox game at Fenway Park.
Because it is a yearly tradition, the Red Sox attempt to play the game through weather issues, but with the forecast calling for nearly a 100 percent chance of rain throughout the day, the Red Sox decided to postpone Monday’s game early.
