The CSR at Delta I spoke with didn't seem certain, and I don't want any surprises when I arrive at the airport tonight.
In a perfect world I would NEVER check any bag onto ANY airline, but sometimes it's unavoidable and this is one of those times...
Did you said tonight? What you can do is: try to check in at home. It will show how many bags you are allow to check in.

A couple clicks and I was on my way (probably look up my status).
So try and check in, it should how many bags you're allowed.
