Saturday Orioles doubleheader game thread: at Detroit, 12:10

Rain washed away yesterday’s game and prompted a split doubleheader today in Detroit. The first game begins at 12:10 with the second scheduled for 5:10. This post will serve as the game thread for both contests.

Adley Rutschman will get a rare day off with James McCann starting behind the plate. Apparently asking the 24-year-old phenom to play two is where Brandon Hyde finally draws the line. Rutschman, and plenty of other Orioles, went hitless against Detroit starter Eduardo Rodriguez last week.

Joey Ortiz is back in the lineup and will play second base for the second time.
