Time to check on the Mariners during a commercial break in the Storm game and oh they're down 4-0 with Paxton on the mound cool this game's over.

I don’t think this Cub’s game is gonna happen, ya’ll.

If you’re wondering why it hasn’t been postponed yet, it’s because there’s a special season pass event at Nats Park tomorrow

It's supposed to be done raining there until about 3:00AM so maybe if they restart within the next 15 minutes.

probably but it doesn't matter because it shouldn't happen. I understand the need to get these final month games in and nobody really wants to turn these into 'cancelled unless they matter for the playoffs' games, but having a game resume at midnight on a soaked field AND trying to rush things to get the game in before the harder rain comes a few hours later is a massive injury risk at a time where MLB says that player safety is paramount

Could Lester and Ross just conceivably start tomorrow's game? Neither threw more pitches than you'd throw in a regular off day bullpen session.

Oh I agree. It’s completely unsafe for the players, and now the operations staff have to stay even later to terminal clean the park that could have been done hours ago.

It was worth it for Joe West to be humiliated. Also thanks for the error DBacks, we sure can't score runs on our own.

haha Duvall time!

gently caress yeah lmao single, steal, double, groundout, infield hit, infield hit, error brings in two runs to cut the deficit to 1 with the bases loaded and Adam "I should have been cut two days ago" Duvall at the plate

I know Inciarte got tossed, but why the gently caress are you letting Duvall take a strikeout with the bases loaded? Send up Kurt Suzuki and let Lane Adams take over LF, gently caress.

Fair, but even if he regresses to a league average bat his defense makes it worthwhile
