Winds just jumped about 30 mph in my neighborhood. Batten down the hatches!

The Cubs are so bad at weather. They suspend a game when there's no rain and then play a stupid late doubleheader in the midst of a biblical thunderstorm. Genius.

So if the game is called do they just scrap it…..and play 2 full 7 inning games tomorrow or do they pick it up where it left off and then play the 2nd game as a 7 inning deal?

 

I know in the past if a game didn’t go 5 innings it was just cancelled and rescheduled.

Yeah, so many questions. Like, is this locked in as a 7-inning game? Could they suspend and play 5 innings of this one and then a full 9-inning game the same day?

 

It's up to the umps now, at least. Anything to get the Cubs out of meteorology.

The reds bullpen is atrocious. Garrett came in after hembree struggled to start the 6th. Garrett has thrown 11 pitches and only 1 in the strike zone. Two walks later braves are up 1 with the bases still loaded

If they ppd, another contingency is Ashby won't get credit for his forst MLB K. Odd tidbits for a totally predictable rain delay.

 

I thought things were changed this year so that all partial games that were started get suspended and continued at a later date instead of starting over.

You're probably right. If they suspend, the stats will count, and I have seen other games started and suspended.
