Yep. That's the essence of the plot against us... :(

MLB has borrowed control of the weather machines from the Illuminati, you see. It's all a plan to distract the people while Nibiru approaches... :D :D :D

Hopefully they get this one in. I might try to go to the Atlanta one in August now. Was unable to make the games this year

1st pitch at 8:40 cincy time.

If I may ask -- where are you getting your skinny? I'm out of market, here in Mpls, and can only see what's on the team's website, and whatever MLB.TV allows through while the game is officially in a weather delay -- which is zilch, they go to a stupid graphic on each feed, and it sits there from when the delay is called until about 10 seconds prior to the next (or first) pitch.

Do I have to be in either Chicago or, in this case, Cincy, just to get any kind of real-time news on the weather conditions on a Cubs rain delay?

I only ask because, the way the season is going, I will be looking for such information every other game or so... sigh... and it would be nice to know if there is a website or something that gives this kind of weather info, oh, within five minutes of it being announced. Instead of, oh, maybe before midnight...

OK, kewl. So, TV broadcast I can't get without being in the area, and radio I would have to pay for XM.

I already pay for MLB.TV, the only way to get the TV broadcast out of market (which, as I said, will *not* interrupt their fascinating "This game is delayed due to weather" graphic for such inconsequential things such as updates as to whether the game might actually be played yet this decade) so XM radio, huh? I don't think so. Not gonna pay for something I will not use just to get weather updates during the time some web feed manager doesn't think I need any weather updates.

Thanks for keeping us updated, hwkn. I appreciate it. I dunno what all of us who aren't in Chicago will do if you don't keep us up to date... ;)

True, but c'mon, they scored three before getting to that point. That counts for something!

(Counts for exactly three runs, actually... ;) )

Would of been nice to have 4 or 5 that inning..
Got 2 RBI guys up there and they do the worse thing possible with a runner on 3rd and less then 2 outs

Schwarber pops out to short
Baez strikes out

Don’t look now but our solid defensive SS is batting .267. Higher than Javy. ��
