April 14, 20188 yr QUOTE (Richie @ Apr 14, 2018 -> 05:00 PM) This series is OVA... Sunday- PPD No makeup date. Probably could exclude Thursday now. Nothing like a 6-game series in June. Should be fun.
April 14, 20188 yr QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 14, 2018 -> 12:39 PM) True, you'd think they'd have a retractable roof at least. Don't know about cost issues at the time with them but the people spoke. They wanted outdoor baseball and who can blame them? I would never want to go to a game indoors but I would accept it if I had to on a day they'd close the roof. Ehh I guess since baseball in the summer.. But have you been to the Viking football stadium? Honestly sometimes indoors can be just fine...
April 14, 20188 yr I'm going to predict its a 161 game season and one of them is saved for the end of the season and only played if it matters.

April 15, 20188 yr One other thing they could possibly do to avoid two doubleheaders is move the 9/27 Tigers-Twins game to 9/24, and play the Sox on the 27th.

Kudos to them, unlike some other teams. Even Maddon of the Cubs in his postgame today came out and categorically said they should have never played the game at Wrigley Saturday.

Two biggest differences- it was good enough to get the game in, and it was against a team not coming back to town. The Sox are going back to Minnesota twice and it is a blizzard. I have no doubt if Chicago weather was good tomorrow they would have played two tomorrow. As far as beefs with the Twins, they should have called off all three games Thursday night and let the Sox fly home or out to Phoenix to workout at Camelback a couple days before going to Oakland.

They will spread them out As a negative Nancy, can you imagine us losing all 6 games? Minnie, depending where it is in the standings, will be licking its chops. The Twins could make up a lot of ground, or expand their lead in the division BIG TIME with the patsie Sox in town for six in 3 days. If I were the Twins I'd be ALL FOR THAT setup. 5-1 or 6-0.

Disgraceful. Twins should have sent the Sox home after the first game. Hope the Sox charter is safe and gets out of snowville. It's snowing in KC. Are u guys getting snow tomorrow? Usually our weather heads your way.
April 15, 20188 yr These make up games aren’t all that bad for a team in the White Sox position as they get to bring up a guy for the DHs. Hopefully someone somewhat interesting, but probably not. For when they actually contend, 4 make up games and counting isn’t ideal.

April 15, 20188 yr If you're interested to see when they get off the ground, they're scheduled to get out at 1:40. https://flightaware.com/live/flight/UAL2503 Edit: pushed back to 2:13 Edit: now 1:25, they may actually get out of there! Edited April 15, 20188 yr by flavum
