Here's When The Orioles Will Start The 2022 Season

BALTIMORE, MD — Major League Baseball and the Players Association agreed to a deal that would end the lockout and give fans a full season. Opening Day is set for April 7.

Commissioner Rob Manfred Jr. announced March 1 that the first two series of the season were canceled, with more cancellations potentially to come if the two sides couldn't find common ground.

Those games have now been restored, despite the later start date.

MLB is scheduling in some doubleheaders to account for the April 7 Opening Day.

Spring training games will start March 18, with the Orioles taking on the Toronto Blue Jays.

Major League Baseball Players Association leaders and team owners hammered out a new collective bargaining agreement Thursday, ending the lockout after 99 days. There will be a full season with many of the pandemic changes, like nine-inning doubleheaders and no more automatic baserunners in extra innings, ending.

A new addition is the universal designated hitter, meaning teams in both the American and National League will have the DH.

The postseason will be expanded to 12 teams, something the league pushed for in its negotiations. Player uniforms will for the first time have advertising patches on their jerseys and decals on their helmets.

A pitch clock will be used, and the shift will be banned beginning in 2023.
