Hurricanes and baseball don't mix by Jared Carrabis
Friday night's game postponed 'til Saturday


(Red Sox Press Release) -- Tonight's Red Sox-White Sox game at Fenway Park has been postponed due to this evening's weather forecast for heavy rain and strong winds associated with Hurricane Earl.

Not something we're accustomed to seeing, and I don't mean the hurricane.

We haven't seen the Red Sox postpone a game hours before first pitch all season long, even with not so promising forecasts. If you have tickets for Manny's second coming this season, they will be good for a 1:05pm start at Fenway Park tomorrow as part of a day-night doubleheader.

If you have tickets to Saturday's game, it will still begin at the billed time of 7:10pm

The press release goes on to say, "The decision to postpone tonight's game was made in consultation with Major League Baseball and in consideration of the Governor's state of emergency declaration. The Red Sox and Major League Baseball feel it is better to err on the side of public safety even if the current weather forecast dramatically changes its course."

Stay dry, Sox fans!
