I wonder if they'll get this game in? The forecast doesn't look very promising...

[BruisedCrew]

Haudricort had a good column on JSOnline this morning describing why the Brewers streaky hitting this season has Brewers fans nervous that another one of those slumps is upon us. Another cold snap like the ones in May, and in the last series against the Reds, and the 8 game lead could be gone as quickly as it appeared.

Meh, the ebs and flows of a season always occur. More than likely that the Brewers are not going to run away with it. They’re going to have bad stretches still. That’s baseball.

Would figure a Wednesday double-header would be in order if they can't fit it in...depends on just how "scattered" those t-storms are, I guess.

 

With DeGrom going, wouldn't mind about an hour and a half delay around about the 3rd inning...

[yourout]

On paper this one's a pretty big Miss match.

I think you're right about the third inning rain delay being the best option

Normal ebbs and flows don’t usually involve going from a tie for first to an 8 game lead in about 10 days and then surrendering most of it back in another 10. With all of those games against the Reds coming up that could happen if the Brewers have another major scoring drought.

Could and maybe will happen. The Reds have a good team and I’m sure the Cubs will get on track too. The Brewers aren’t the runaways here. They’ve had a great stretch and I’m sure they’ll be in the mix in the end.

Looking at the current radar I would say that there is a very good possibility that this game is not going to be played tonight. There is a severe thunderstorm warning now as a line of heavy storms descends on NYC and it looks like it could be raining for a couple of hours.

From Mets owner Steven Cohen on Twitter…

 

Looks like weather delays but they are going to try and get the game in

 

Weather looks great at 11 pm

 

Looks like weather will improve between 8-9pm

 

Reminder the times mentioned are referring to the Eastern Time Zone.

Is there a service that sends a text message when a game is started? Or what's the best way of not missing the start?

I believe the MLB app does this if you turn the notifications on and your subscribed to the Brewers.

Weather is great at 11:00? What? Even if this game starts at 9:00/9:30 (Eastern), that seems pretty crappy for the fan with tickets. Baseball needs to have some guidelines or cutoffs for when they can start….. especially weeknight games since ya know people work the next day.

Is there a rule about games being postponed due to rain during 72 degrees and sunny weather?

162 games is a lot to get in. Can't just call it off every time you can't get into it within an hour of scheduled start time. Sucks for the fans, but also sucks if they travel from upstate and the whole thing gets postponed. Build a dome and avoid all contingencies.

 

I would propose shortening games to 7 innings if there is more than an hour initial delay to opening pitch.

Mets owner Cohen with another update:

 

Hang in there everybody , we are going to play tonight

 

Just spoke to Sandy

Ask the Cubs.

I sat through a rain delay at Citi Field once. The fun part was trying to catch a train back into the city at 1am... and I left before the game ended.

Hmmmm, it says.. "MLB app users can choose from MLB Notifications, Team News, Game Start, Game End, Scoring Change, Lead Change, Video Highlight, and Condensed Game notifications."

Burnes vs Degrom

 

Anderson vs TBD

For all the scoreboard watchers out there, the Reds just gave up 4 in the 9th to lose to the Royals, so the Brewers gained a 1/2 game in the standings. The Reds pen is a major Achilles heel.

The Reds were winning 6-1 entering the bottom of the 8th inning. They lost 7-6.
