The Orioles will play an exhibition game against the Phillies on April 1 at Citizens Bank Park. First pitch is scheduled for 6:05 p.m.

Their final Grapefruit League game is March 31 against the Braves in Sarasota, Fla. They will squeeze in the exhibition against the Phillies, a day off and a workout at Camden Yards before opening the 2016 season on April 4 against the Twins in Baltimore.

The Orioles also will play the Phillies on March 9 in Clearwater, Fla., March 14 in Sarasota and March 28 in Clearwater. They won’t meet during the regular season, perhaps because they figure to be sick of each other.

The teams played a home-and-home series this year, with the Orioles sweeping a two-game set at Camden Yards on June 15-16 and splitting two games at Citizens Bank Park on June 17-18.

The Orioles outscored the Phillies 30-9 in the four games.
