09/17 Pittsburgh (Correia) @ CUBS (T Wood) 7:05 CDT, CSN TV

[Irrelevant Dude]

This is going to be a crazy late start if they do end up playing. What is the NL curfew these days?

[coldsteel]

There goes the tarp! No sliding. What's wrong with kids these days.

[Schwarber Fan]

Quick.... where's Aramis Fan ??? I need to know if they're going to get this game in ???

 

Start time about midnight according to the radar... no mutual off days though so they'll have to wait it out

 

They won't start a game at midnight. The Pirates are looking unlikely to make the playoffs, so the game will just be cancelled unless they're within half a game of the wild card, in which case they'll make it up on the day off before the playoffs.

 

Less than an hour away from my midnight... :hello:

It's only 2200 here. Don't get any callouses from patting yourself on the back, eh?

[UMFan83]

Twitter saying a 10:40 start. Geez. Imagine if the game went as long as yesterday's.

[haubrich91]

Extra inning game would be pretty epic.

[Soul]

Heh. 10:40pm start, that's a 1:40am ending if all goes well.

[El Duderino]

Too bad Goldstein is working for the Astros now, he'd go insane on twitter about this.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Monday night, late, and there are actually fans in those stands. Hats off to 'em :)

[MWV]

This is hilarious. They're going to be playing ball at 1:00 in the morning.

Hah. There's one great thing about attending a game like this. Find a section of empty seats and wait for foul balls.

[SouthSideRyan]

Really wish I didn't have stuff to do at work tomorrow.

[Soul]

So, you want to be a major leaguer?
