vs. Yankees 8/1 1:05 PM Happy Birthday Adam. In the Bronx.

Dude. relax. He's come up big in plenty of closer spots this year. Easy target right now. Hopefully the rain is a factor.

Regardless, after making "our point" lastnight, I guess the Yankees decided to make "their point" today.

What a sad joke.

There is no defending Kevin Gregg.

[clapdiddy]

Wow....glad I'm NOT watching this mess.

[caesarod]

Rep to the first one here who performs a successful Rain Dance.

[Going Underground]

Good day everyone....Two out of three aint bad.

Who else can pitch besides Chris Davis

If it rains out now does it end as a finished game?

[TGO]

From sweep to weep

It's like they took our broom and beat the bejesus out of us with it.

[square634]

That was eerily like our big inning yesterday.

Really, really eerily close.

[TGO]

What's that old saying? Gonzalez and Tillman and pray for rain?

[caesarod]

If it rains out now does it end as a finished game?

Nope. It's erased from existence.

Or continued at a later date with the same score and in whatever inning it stopped, I thought.

That's what I thought too but I don't believe so.

I've never been sure of the "suspended game" rule, but it'll come up soon, perhaps before I finish tying this.

I think the lead has to change during the last inning for the suspended game rule to take effect. If it is called before the O's finish batting in the 5th inning then it is no game.

[Dark Helmet]

Why is endy chavez still on this team?

[WEAVERMAN]

Zach Britton a better candidate for replacement than Hunter, what a shameful performance.

[caesarod]

No game called because of a curfew (Rule 4.12(a)(1)), weather (Rule 4.12(a)(5)), a time limit (Rule 4.12(a)(2)) or with a tied score (Rule 4.12(a)(6)) shall be a suspended game unless it has progressed far enough to have been a regulation game pursuant to Rule 4.10©.

1) If it pours before the O's complete the 5th, this game goes away.

2) There's no way this will be allowed to happen to the MFY, barring a natural disaster that threatens a complete breakdown of society.
