whitesoxin' Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 I need some advice here. Do you guys think tomorrow night's game will be played. If I decide to go I will be fired from my job (it's a s***ty job anyways) but I don't want to be fired to go sit in the rain all night.

Boston and New York City are 216 miles apart. Chicago and Kansas City are 297 miles apart. So you're right, the O's would have to endure another hour on the grueling charter plane. But they could make up all that extra work with the off day on Monday. The point is, princess, that it's entirely doable for them to play a doubleheader on Sunday. I'm not saying that it should/will/is being etched in stone as we speak; but the precedent has been set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First, please don't call me princess.. I'm anything but and I don't appreciate the condescending tone, which is how I am interpreting it. Second.. when Sidney called this morning to ask me how many tickets I needed for the weekend I asked him if they thought they would play tonight and he said he didn't know but that he knew that the O's had already decided they would not play a double on Sunday...

God damn it's slow at work today Not here - I've been fishing on the microfiche machine for about half the day (getting motion sickness :puke) and answering phones and emails the other half. I should be getting a workout in before heading home for the game, but right now I feel like -> :sleep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest JimH Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 So I wonder if this precludes them from playing a double header on Saturday, if necessary ... One thing for sure, they will do everything they can to get the games in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cerbaho-WG Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 Since it's understood that it's going to rain all day tomorrow, what's the chance of calling the game early? A friend and I are driving to The Cell tomorrow (she bought the tickets last night, sigh) and I'd love to avoid the parking and tolls if the game is going to be cancelled. Common sense would usually play into factor here, but it is her birthday so I don't mind going out of the way a little bit. Do they call the game before the first pitch? I'd have to imagine so some times, but we all know how odd meterology can be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't that be forfeiting the game then? You are at the feet of your schedule, you can't just say, I don't want to play today. Especially considering they don't have a game the day after Sunday and they are playing in KC Tuesday. That means they have to play. I don't think they could just play the makeup game/s at Baltimore because that would be loss of revenue and 1 more away game than they were supposed to have. If US Cellular is undergoing major weather problems, they would have to play it on a neutral site if anything. Just like FLA last year.

Apparently, the CBA gives the Orioles the right to accept or decline under these circumstances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
