First rain out?

Quote:

Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said Friday night's game against the Orioles has been postponed and would be made up as part of a doubleheader Saturday.

No official announcement yet, but he would probably know. It'll be the first rainout at Target Field. Kevin Millwood and Francisco Liriano were the scheduled starters tonight. They'll surely pitch in the doubleheader tomorrow.

It looks as though we may have are first rain out tonight.

Gardy was on 1500am over lunch and said it was a rainout tonight and it'll be a noon and 6pm game tomorrow.

I am pretty sure I wont be buying any tickets in advance for any games. After mid season and the newness wears off, there should be plenty of tickets to be had at the gates. If we had a normal April, a lot of people would have different opinions of Target field, I would bet!

I don't hesitate to stand out in a swamp for hours with late October rain/sleet/snow mix so why would I bunch my panties all up over doing it at Target Field in April/May with heat lamps?

Either man up or tune into channel 45.

I had tickets to Friday's game that was rained out. I'm glad they decided to call it early rather than have all the fans that aren't scared of a little rain show up only to have it canceled at game time.

For those of us that grew up with real baseball (the kind played outside) rain delays/outs are just part of it.

I agree with you Bobby but your post was contradicting. You said to "man up" but prior to that you told everyone that you wear panties! JK. I remember some great afternoon games at the old Met that my dad took me to when I was a kid and we were supposed to be painting houses during my summer school vacation but was to cold out or drizzally to paint.
