Today's game previews -- June 27

The Triple-A Norfolk Tides hit the road to play the Lehigh Valley IronPigs, while the Double-A Bowie Baysox continue their road trip with a doubleheader against the Altoona Curve.

The Single-A Frederick Keys host the Winston-Salem Dash at Harry Grove Stadium, and the short-season Single-A Aberdeen IronBirds face the Brooklyn Cyclones at Ripken Stadium.

The Single-A Delmarva Shorebirds will finish last night's suspended game with the Lakewood BlueClaws before the two teams play a seven-inning matchup. The first game will be picked up in a scoreless tie beginning in the bottom of the third inning.

New York Mets starting pitcher John Maine, a former Oriole, was scheduled to pitch against the IronBirds tonight, but he won't make that appearance.
