The Baltimore Orioles are set to kick off their home season at Camden Yards on Monday, welcoming the Boston Red Sox for an American League East showdown.

Scheduled initially for 3:05 p.m., the first pitch has been moved up to 2:35 p.m. due to anticipated severe weather later in the day. Fans attending the game or watching from home are encouraged to tune in for pregame festivities starting at 2 p.m.
