Tarp is on the field, here we go....

This brings up a curiosity: If a game is scheduled for seven innings, and then rescheduled (or continued following a suspenion), does it maintain the seven-inning status even if it is played on a later day without a second game?

[Frayed Knot]

Well, thanks to the length of Game 1, 3:37 when both halves were added (not including the 1:57 daly Tuesday night) and a bit shy of three hours just for Wednesday's 7-1/2 innings,

and now the rain delay following the between game delay and there's no way I'm going to see the conclusion of this one.

Not sure I'm going to make it to the beginning ... assuming there even will be a beginning.



Hey, maybe they'll wind up rescheduling for two again tomorrow!

Yes (at least I think so). The rule seems to dictate that a game will be completed at the length it was designated as at its beginning.

Hence Game 1 today being 9 but Game 2 at 7

Driving down for tomorrow's matinee. Knowing that it's now a scheduled Trevor Willams start, and not a Stroman start, is making me frowny.



Maybe this nightcap gets rained out and Stro gets pushed back to his original scheduled start tomorrow...

Straight double-header tomorrow, with the seven inning thing. Crazy.

Good news for Fboy and me! We get a minimum of 14 innings of baseball on a perfect warm sunny day! My first MLB doubleheader, in fact.

And don't try to bring in a backpack of any sorts. You can bring in a pocket-

book up to 16" in length, but no backpacks!!

Braves win on a walkoff 11th inning come from behind homer.



Phillies getting smacked around

[bmfc1]

ATL and PHI are tied for 1st at 59 and 55

The Mets are 1 back, 2 games "in hand" at 57 and 55 (they'll have played only one game less after today).
