ARLINGTON, Texas -- Israeli-American pitcher Dean Kremer will make his first career playoff start for the Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday night while thinking about family members in Israel, where war has been declared following a deadly attack by the militant group Hamas.
Kremer said Monday that he has no hesitation about pitching Game 3 of the American League Division Series against the Texas Rangers, a game the Orioles have to win to extend their season.
"I still want to pitch, but, I mean, it's going to be in the back of my head," Kremer said.
