Tuesday Bird Droppings: Where the Orioles are staying up late

Good morning, Camden Chatters.

You know what’s even more fun than watching the worst team in baseball? Staying up past midnight to watch the worst team in baseball. Thanks to the Orioles’ bizarre 2019 schedule, it’s become a common occurrence for their games to start late in the evening for Eastern time zone viewers.

Last night’s series opener in Arizona, which began at 9:40 PM ET, was the seventh Orioles game to start at 9:30 or later in the East. The O’s already made one random trip to Colorado for a pair of late games, then went on a trek to Oakland and Seattle in June that brought four more late-night contests.
