3 in a row?

Some offense, maybe?

Please??

So this Marquez guy (Rockies SP), suffered the same outcome vs. the Dodgers as last nights pitcher except he did worse. Much worse. It seems he allowed 7 runs in 2/3 of an inning(he didn't make it out of the 1st). So his ERA is skewed, but he's no Cy Young. He also allowed 6 runs to the Padres in less than 5 innings.

Hopefully we can take advantage.

Biggio, Renfroe...and Isbel.... woof.

Glad India is ****ing out and Garcia is leadoff. Been calling for this for weeks. We can't score any ****ing runs.

In for another win! Valium, Vicodin and vodka for the win!

Rain delay

Looks like they may be starting in a rain delay. There is a pretty hefty line of storms to the west according to radar (out past Lawrence), and they just put the tarp on the infield.

Edit: Yeah, what Deberg said.

watching the late innings replay from yesterday right now...Freddy and Garcia were money

This is dumb. This game could be halfway over. Not a drop has fallen so far.

Been outside the last couple of hours and not raining at all.

Weather Doppler looks nasty

Feels like a late night of baseball if there is one at all.

Just when our bats were heating up Mother Nature and some pitcher no one has ever heard of says Nope

Welp it’s all lightning up north at the moment not looking good for the metro tonight I fear

lol they could've gotten most of the game in if they had just started. the line of rain is barely moving, so once it actually starts to rain, it won't clear for a while. just stupid.

Yep. Probably no game tonight now.

Still zero rain where I live in KCMO.

It’s pouring in OP now.

Officiallly postponed. Talk about bone headed. Could've likely gotten most of the game in, perhaps sit for an hour or so of rain delay and finish tonight, or pick it up tomorrow followed by the scheduled third game.

Yea. Sounds like they got some bad forecast information??

Meh didn't ruin any pitching tonight if they started and stopped. Now we get a rested pen plus an extra pitcher tomorrow.
