9/5 GDT PeaveMe @ Dee-Twa

Pitt vs. Boston College on ESPN right now if anyone is bored waiting.

Mud Lovin' Rednecks on Animal Planet.....lol

Not looking good here, folks. I'm guessing we're done for the night.

I don't know what the rules are here if we don't make it thru 5. Do we continue tomorrow (yay!), or start all over (boo!)?

 

[calsnowskier]

Damn.

So we complete the game tomorrow AM, and the scheduled game becomes an twilight game instead. Both teams have their aces going, so bully issues should not be too critical.

 

[Band of Brothers]

They will get it in. I see a break in about a hour to hour and half . Should get 5 innings in at least.

 

[Band of Brothers]

6-0 Braves losing now.

LA vs. D-Backs 7 PM on MLB Network

If they don't finish 5 inniings tonight and it's called the game has to be replayed in full. Not good. Gotta get it in.

Sucks for Peavy. Throwing a helluva game through three and will have nothing to show for it. At least it looks like being reunited with Bochy has got positive results.

 

[Band of Brothers]

Baggs said on CSN that Lincecum might get the ball tonight if Peavy can't continue.

Is this based on anything, or just your belief?

I believe....I'll have another beer.

Looks like this could be at least another hour to two hour wait. Jon Miller saw the same break in the weather I saw on Doppler radar but Tigers now say they want to wait for all the rain to clear out. Kind of a BS move by them but it's Detroit and not SF. They could of got at least 5 innings in in the next 45 minutes but Tigers are balking that they want 9 innings to be able to come back. I am tired of rain delays and ground crews.

I would expect nothing less from Bochy in the same situation. When you're in a race for a playoff spot every win and loss counts and I know the Tigers ain't gonna just roll over to get a game out of the way.

 

[calsnowskier]

Would the game start over from the beginning or continue, if we can't continue tonight?

You are both dreaming. That "break" might last all of 15 minutes, if you're lucky. We are done for the night, IMO.

Better dynamic map, but I can't embed it here:

If I'm reading this right, they have to suspend it and complete it at a future date, as in tomorrow.

Jon Miller just reported almost no rain for last one hour and ten minutes. They could of got in the 5 innings easy.

Not being a lawyer, that's how I interpret it.
