kev211 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 QUOTE (Sox-35th @ Apr 3, 2017 -> 04:27 PM) Once they say the game is on, they're going to wait quite a while. They want you to see baseball because most of you can't come back tomorrow. Most of us can't stick around until 8-9-10 tonight either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Apr 3, 2017 -> 04:25 PM) This game could be official by now. Real bad organizational decision at this point stunningly bad actually. REO Speedwagon sang the national anthem ....that's the state of this piss poor organization right now. Wasted $110 a seat for this. They will call it about the time they would have been done with the 7th inniing when beer sales end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 QUOTE (Kalapse @ Apr 3, 2017 -> 02:02 PM) Rick Renteria comes off as exceedingly competent. It stood out immediately to me at spring training how much better of a manager Renteria is then Robin. So much more engaging, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kev211 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Apr 3, 2017 -> 04:27 PM) To be fair, they aren't the only organization that operates this way. Games are rarely called day before/early morning of. It's opening day. They leave a day off in their schedule literally for this reason. There's an offday tomorrow for this reason.

caulfield12 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Must be because they have a deal on the table for Q. This season not getting off to an auspicious start. Does feel rather manipulative and more team revenue than fan-oriented. Not the best look, but is anyone truly surprised? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kev211 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Apr 3, 2017 -> 04:27 PM) I am not saying it is on you, but the intent was to play the game today. With a day game, most people who attended had to get work off. If they called the game and rescheduled for tomorrow, a good chunk of the ticket holders wouldn't be there. Several posters have said as much today. The situation sucks, and I wouldn't be thrilled if I were you either, but they were trying to do what was in the best interest of the majority. I understand the frustration, but not exactly sure what you would have preferred them to do. Plus, for all we know, this game will still get played. The issue is the game should've started at 3:10'andnirs literally barely rained since. They knew this was the best weather they could've gotten. So if they're not playing in it or weren't willing too why not call it early and let the majority figure it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 (edited) Free advice for the Sox- postpone Wednesday and Thursday's games tomorrow. The Tigers come back twice.
