Delay or Cancellation?

 

Caution!  Some harsh language.

based on that downpour, the field is probably wasted .......

I'm just jealous that you can make that statement! My umpire room is typically the front of my vehicle.

 

Also send some of that rain to So Cal please!

We have fields that your done on and fields you could play on. Any dirt, you're done for the day. Turf field, wait the thirty and if it let's up, play.

It was raining like that last week an hour before my game, by game time it was just drizzling. We played. Coaches had to dry off the bases in between batters but we played. I got lucky to have almost strictly turf fields for my first two weeks.

I'd keep playing...I don't think the heavy stuff's coming down for awhile.

Hey - 10 minutes after a tornado passes through, it's sunny.  Let's get ready, boys!

WTH!? Tonight - 60 degrees, sunny, and playing on turf. Yet rained out!? *headdesk*

We can fix the dirt part. You need to have the field so it will drain (slope and material) then it's just top dress it.

Most of our dirt fields aren't graded well. Most of the ones I do regularly, the out field puddles horribly. Only two, eh, maybe 3, have decent enough grading to play after a pour down and I've only seen quick dry at one of them.

Next year will be better, I heard two more complexes are going turf this fall.

And that's about how bad it was when the front came through.
