ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) – Baltimore Orioles manager Buck Showalter looked out of place.

It was understandable.

Wearing his home uniform, Showalter took his normal spot in the visiting dugout at Tropicana Field before Friday night’s game against Tampa Bay.

But the attire is appropriate this weekend with Baltimore “hosting” the relocated three-game series in Florida.

“We all understand why,” Showalter said of shifting the series. “Hopefully it’s a positive thing. I hope it’s a positive thing when we get home.”
