The wont double here.. they will double in Baltimore in late July.

Wouldn't they want to double here cause the Sox would be losing out on revenue if they waited. Unless of course the Sox somehow get the ticket sales from then. I just figure they'll do all they can to get all 4 games played here. MLB rarely has a team play an extra road game unless it has to (for example if the weather is bad this entire weekend and one or two games get cancelled, then they'll try and make something for it). Heck, a lot of the time they'll even schedule a game on an off day (something I hate cause it puts teams all out of whack).

 

Hopefully all the games get in and its nothing to worry about cause double dips can be a bummer especially if you end up getting a couple in a row (murders your pitching staff).

Thanks 2K5, that was more of the point I was making. Also, the more people that are at the park, the less the attendance talk is an issue. Would rather hear about the team, than the attendance.

 

Preach on brother!

Anything is possible.. but it's supposed to rain here tonight, tomorrow night, and Saturday. They wont double on Sunday because it's get away day. All depends on the weather I suppose.

I didn't know it was supposed to rain all weekend. If thats the case your probably right. Although If the weather is nice on Sunday they could try to squeeze in two.

Not a chance of a double on Sunday. Baltimore will never agree to a double on get away day.. nor should they.

THe most unfortunate thing is we don't get to knock around Ponson this weekend.

 

(Sorry Steff.)

Monday is an off day for Baltimore, they play in KC on Tuesday nite.

 

Personally I don't think any of this will come into play, the weather forecasts I'm seeing makes it seem like scattered bad weather vs. a consistent mess.

 

But seeing as the Orioles are off Monday, squeezing in two is possible.

Yea.. him and his 5-1 would be such a breeze..

Bla, bla, bla, bla.... :rolly

Again, i don't think the weather will preclude getting these games in, but if it came down to it ... Orioles would likely choose to play two vs. making a seperate trip to Chicago. I doubt the Sox would give up the home game and play it in Baltimore.

I am sitting in an office building downtown chitown right now. As of now it is very lightly raining....i dont think they are gonna call the game, if they started it right now they would play

 

acctually after looking out the window, the sun is peaking through the clouds....

just looked at the radar on weather.com... it looks like it will stop pretty much all rain for awhile, which will allow the field to drain for a few hours. Then there's a band in mid to eastern Iowa, but that's all basically light green, meaning light showers. I think they'll play tonight.

OK

I think they'll play tonight.

 

 

 

As do I.

I think this is the longest thread I've ever started.

FWIW weather.com has taken off "thunderstorms" for tonight and replaced it with "few showers".... God damn it's slow at work today

Yea Ponson is so deadly with that 4.93 ERA, getting lit up by Tampa twice.... but yea he's good :rolly

The Sox just lost to Tampa twice..

Bottom Line is that Ponson is really over-rated if you like it or not.

Well, rain or no rain, I'm going down there.

 

Dollar Hotdog night is not going to be ruined for me...
