The Baltimore Orioles and St. Louis Cardinals were locked in a 1-1 game on Tuesday night when weather decided to crash the party.

8:15 p.m. CT: Thunderstorms rolling in forced the tarp out onto the field. With any luck it'll be a short break but you never know with Mother Nature. It could be quick or it could end up being a few hours before the game can resume.

This is one both teams will be eager to see out.

Lance Lynn of the Cardinals and Kyle Bradish of the Orioles were both excellent. Lynn allowed just two hits with one run coming via an error. He struck out five. Bradish gave up four hits and struck out six while allowing just one run himself.
