Cubs/Pirates Game Delayed?

[Whit_Eboy]

It's been delayed for more than 30mins. Anyone know how bad it is and if they will continue play?

[jcho201]

I live like 5 minutes from PNC park and the radar has a stream of yellow stuff coming for the next 40 minutes. As much as I hate it im on the cubs as well, but i think they should call it soon.

[Whit_Eboy]

What?!

If they call the game, then it will be like nothing happened and they will replay a NEW game?

[COACH DITKA]

Wish I could give you an update, but they put the White Sox game on Comcast down here now so no idea what is gonna happen.

[Whit_Eboy]

Damn umpires better resume the game. All the momentum was clearly on the Cubs side.

It's about time they put the better team on... :laughing:

(just kidding coach)

If they call it, it will be final with a 6-5 Cubs win. It's supposed to be coming back on right now.

[NittanyLions94]

Scratch that. It's still raining but they're going to try to get a full 9 in. The Pirates, by rule, have to bat in the 7th to take it final.

[jcho201]

They need to play the bottom of the 7th for it to be complete. If they dont finish the bottom of the 7th, they will finish the game tomorrow. All they are trying to do now is finish the 7th and then call the game. The announcers here just said that it will most likely be a 7 inning game if they finish tonight.

[JohnnyMapleLeaf]

Do wagers still pay out?

[NittanyLions94]

They will resume tomorrow if it doesn't get finished tonight. I would assume all wagers would stay pending until it is finished.

[NittanyLions94]

Game's banged. Will be resumed tomorrow afternoon at 12:30, then 20-30 mins and start the final game.

[CuseFan10]

Same thing happened in Milwaukee/Florida didn't it earlier in the year? My guy counted it as a no play, and I think online books did as well. They resumed the next day that one too.

[FlyersFan]

so is the wager still a go?

[FlyersFan]

how do they decide BTW whether to call the game and make it a rain shortened final (i have seen like 6 inning rain shortened games as finals before i think) or play the rest of it some other time?
