The only reason is FOX. I love baseball and thought this was a cool idea, but this is bad.....

I'm all for the occasional mid-summer gimmick, but talking about how much energy/money went into this - even in the best of circumstances it seems unlikely this would have been worthwhile

I mean they sold the tickets and were expected to have over 80,000

It was worthwhile. Just sucks that rain ruined it.

A whole lotta misguided anger being projected in this thread.


This could've been a cool baseball thing. We don't get many of those anymore.

Sucks that it isn't happening.

Damn the tarp out again they gotta bang it.

This sucks, they took so much effort to pull this off and sold the tickets and it was going to rule and they get a shitty summer storm. Had to try everything they could to get it in and it just never stopped raining

consider it a blessing

this charade never should’ve started much the less resumed.

It’s a complete failure and the game will not occur

From our side I just never sensed much enthusiasm (even before we became irrelevant) but If it made $$$ fair enough

Looks like going into that last commercial break, Fox accidentally ran a graphic that said the game will be played tomorrow at 1pm ET.
