BALTIMORE — The Orioles’ series finale against the Toronto Blue Jays was postponed Wednesday night after a thunderstorm began about an hour before first pitch and showed little signs of letting up at Oriole Park at Camden Yards.
The game has been rescheduled to Sept. 5 as part of a traditional doubleheader that will begin at 1:05 p.m.
The rainout ensures Baltimore remains tied for a playoff spot for at least another 24 hours. A Tampa Bay Rays loss to the Milwaukee Brewers earlier Wednesday closed the half-game gap between the Rays (58-52) and the Orioles (58-52) for the third and final American League wild-card spot.
