cabiness42 Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Hypothetically, if there weren't going to be severe storms and tornadoes all over the place tonight, Esmil Rogers and Chris Sale would face off in the last game of the season between the two teams. Rest of the hypothetical lineups to follow later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigHurt3515 Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 If it wasn't for all the rain and storms coming I would be going to this game tonight. Disappointing. I was looking forward to seeing Sale pitch in person for the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this year, there is nothing wrong with Mother Nature postponing a couple of his starts. giving his arm extra rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Remember when a rain out the day before a scheduled off day caused major Sox withdrawal? Now? Not so much. Take all the time you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cabiness42 Posted June 12, 2013 Author Share Posted June 12, 2013 When is this weather supposed to start? The Cubs are playing right now. They will probably get their game in before the weather gets there, but anybody with a sizable drive home might want to consider leaving early.

Swingandalongonetoleft Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 People have been threatening me about The Day After Tomorrow since I arrived at work this morning, and it was supposed to have been here since before noon. I think I've counted 3 separate raindrops all day. I'm currently looking out the window at the sun shining. I'm a big fan of stormy weather, so I wouldn't mind it- but for everyone else's sake, hopefully it misses. These people are right about on the verge of building a bomb shelter for a little weather...

clyons Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 The forecast is bad enough, but I am certain the conflict with Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals and its potential effect on the gate helped make this an even easier decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. Obvioisly many with tickets wouldn't have come if it was a perfect day because of the Hawks, but they aren't calling it because of that. Make up date crowds tend to be weak as well, and I think the attendance people here really overestimate walk up sales. I think 2500 is the biggest walk up crowd of the past 2 years. Most of the tickets the Sox are going to sell, they have sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't look like any of the cells have hit the Cell directly yet, raining for the last hour plus, severe stuff everywhere around, heavy lightning. Tornado was on the ground near Joliet earlier. Just getting started. Stadium would have been emptied due to lightning if there were people there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
