Here's hoping Bob Costas gets pinkeye again.

They can start it around 9:30 after they do their warmups

I wonder what the latest they would start a game tonight is? Looks like if they can wait until 9 o'clock Eastern it might be OK.

MLB completely screwed up the schedule when they didn't allow for a travel day between games 5 and 6.
Possible double header tomorrow?
No, they'll just push back the schedule a day.

Don't think there should be a limit. They need to play this game tonight

That weather screen shot says 0.02" per hour. That's a drizzle. That's not rain.

You guys are getting soft.

Yeah they're hot but the Astros are playing incredibly good baseball right now and have very few if any weaknesses.

I'm not scared of anyone right now.


To be fair, our pitching staff is playing incredible baseball right now. Our bats have kinda left quite a bit to be desired, especially the top half of the order

I'd be shocked if they played at 9

The chance this series goes all 7 games is incredibly slim.

If they don't play today they'll just slide everything a day and when we win it early there will be no ramifications to the WS.

That's the entire year in a nutshell. Going to have to ride the staff to the finish line. Hopefully Schwarber, Hoskins, and Harper can be cooled off.

The hell? People are sitting in the stands without ponchos or jackets. It's not raining.

Wunderground weather app is decreasing the percentage in the 8pm hour. Was at 77% earlier, then 66% and now 60%. Storm seems to be passing through faster than originally expected

There is one greenish blob about to blow through in next 15 minutes, and then a thin little line a bit later.

The resistance must be coming from the NYY side. We have Garcia and Urquidy to throw if the game has to be delayed after start. I don't think the yanks have the same luxuries in their BP...

Good time to dig this back up

We are averaging over 4 runs a game in the playoffs. While not stellar, it's plenty with ou pitching.

And that's with some slumpage going with otherwise proven hitters. It's very likely we see more production in the top of the order.

TBS says if they can get on the field between 8-9 to warm up, they will play

I'm assuming EST since that's where the game is being played.

Whenever they get on the field, it's likely it'll be 45 minutes from then to get started

If the series goes 7 they would not know where game 1 of the World Series would be until less than 24 hours of it happening. Crazy that baseball would make a schedule where 1 rainout could do that.

That should be good to go in an hour. I'm thinking this game gets played tonight.

I don't think either team wants to deal with shuffling it. I don't think the Yanks wanted to risk losing Nestor with an early inning delay so they were being cautious.
