That's unacceptable if it was cause of field conditions in the year 2019. Edited May 19, 2019 by greg775 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The umps kept the grounds crew off the field for 10-15 minutes more than normal because the game was so close to being official. Those 10 minutes happened to be torrential downpour, so there was significant puddles before the tarp was ever able to be put on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe the reason Alonso was hitting 6th was that maybe Renteria finally wised up and realized that maybe a .180 hitter should not be batting cleanup, that maybe another spot in the order would take some of the pressure off of him and would let him relax a little.

You take the rain shortened win and don't even give the Jays a chance in the final four innings. Works perfectly fine for me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
