The Orioles’ efforts to continue their hot streak were temporarily cooled Friday, with inclement weather in Detroit prompting the postponement of the second game of Baltimore’s four-game series with the Tigers.

The teams will instead play a split doubleheader Saturday, with the first game scheduled for 12:10 p.m. and the second at 5:10 p.m. The Orioles have won nine of their past 10 games and 11 of their past 13 after beating Detroit, 7-4, in Thursday’s series opener. Baltimore has won the first game of all nine of its series thus far, winning five straight series overall. The Orioles’ 17 victories are the most before May 1 in franchise history.

Both teams will be able to carry a 27th player on their active roster for Saturday’s game. This series begins a 10-game road trip for the Orioles that also features stops in Kansas City and Atlanta.
