Fans that sat in the rain to watch the Red Sox game last night until it was suspended in the middle of the ninth inning are not going to be happy to learn their tickets won’t let them see the end of the game.
“The continuation of [Friday’s] game is governed by the rules of Major League Baseball. In accordance with those rules, the first game of the series must be played to completion before the second game may commence. Thus, tonight’s game will be continued tomorrow, Saturday, April 17, at 7:10 p.m., due to the likelihood of adverse weather earlier in the day. The Saturday game already scheduled will start approximately 30-45 minutes after the completion of the suspended Friday night game.
“Fans holding tickets for tomorrow’s regularly scheduled Red Sox-Rays game on Saturday, April 17, may use them for both the conclusion of tonight’s game, which will begin at 7:10 p.m., as well as for the game originally scheduled to be played. Tickets for tonight’s suspended game, April 16, will not be valid for use tomorrow for either one. Gates will open at 5:10 p.m. [Saturday].”
You lucky fans holding tickets for tonight’s game get a special treat as long as the rain lets up.
