Guardians (Allen) vs Twins (Ober): 5/19/25, 6:40pm

[Mike Sixel]

Wimps. The HS Oregon boys golf championship was played in rain and wind for the first two or three hours today.  Hopefully day two is better....

In any event.... Baseball is different. Hopefully when we make these up, the twins are healthier.

Yes tomorrow is going to be worse actually. It stopped raining (slight mist) where I am so TF’s tarp could be lifted in the next 5-10 min

Why? What are we gonna do tomorrow night?

Make some old fashioned card board sailboats and float them down the street. Play dodge-em with the lightning. Like the boys HS golfers in Oregon

I watched Caddyshack. Inclimate weather leads to unholy good golf scores.

 

Also, don't mess with the gophers!

What about woodchucks? Are they fair game?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Only if you are immune to climate change...

 

Wait no... That's ground hogs...

 

I don't know... Can they chuck wood?

It’s not raining at my house anymore so they are all invited to play at the park across the road. There’s not a dugout per se… just a couple of benches and 1 metal bleacher stand that can hold maybe 30 people. 

Edit: Don’t pay attention to the dandelions growing in the OF

Just looked up the weather myself, and the storm is coming from the southwest?

What kinda weird weather is this?

 

Maybe things will be more clear if i look at the weatherishappening site...

[thelanges5]

Race to finish 5 innings with more rain on the way?

Didn't they usually come from there? Did things change since I moved away?

The real question is what’s our xRD? Our simply put, expected rain delay?

[Patzky]

Back in business.

I prefer WIRD, or weather independent rain delays 

[Aggies7]

Just to be sure, we should give Falvey another 9 years without much criticism. 

[Patzky]

DET - STL about to be caught in the rain as well.  Official game if so.  Cardinals up by five.

[Aggies7]

It’s absolutely dumping right now lol
