Diamondbacks (Kelly) vs Cubs (Taillon): 4/20/25, 1:20pm

[Brandon Glick]

It's an Easter clash between the Cubs and D-Backs. A series sweep here would be sweet.

 

[Hot Sauce]

A 1:20 first pitch at Wrigley. The way baseball was meant to be played.

Hopefully rain stays away

Looks like it's supposed to end around 4.  So they should be able to get this in just several hours late

Gotten to Gallen twice this season, about time they get to Kelly.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Kelly has been absolute trash this year and his stuff+ sucks. There's no reason we should struggle so much against him. It is frustrating.

[gflore34]

Will Turner at 3B be in the lineup today?  He has good career numbers vs. Kelly, might be worth trying to get some offense from 3B.  Maybe give him a couple of AB's?

The Cubs are currently way out in front of B-R's SRS rating system on teams:

Oh, yay. We get Alex Cohen again.

How long does this delay look?

[JHBulls]

Just when I want to start my day off with hopefully another Cubs win, weather delay. :(

Looking at radar i would guess 4pm central 

[Dfan25]

2:00 start time 

[JHBulls]

Ah, horsefeathers! 

[Cubs206]

They started only for it to delay again? 
do they not have the weather channel.

Should’ve put the tarp on before Seiya’s AB..

[JBears79]

Who is the genius who decided to start the game? Did they even look at the radar?

[We Got The Whole 9]

Are the starters gonna be out now? Gross incompetence.

I would guess if it's a short break that they will both be mostly fine. 20 minutes shouldnt set them, that's like a good offensive run.

But it may end up horsefeathers them if isn't super short, and I'd be livid if it is.

[Brian707]

Shouldn't have even started 

[PackLandVA]

DBacks announcers said delay is because of lightning strike nearby.

[Jason Ross]

3:10cst start.

We have the technology and they didn’t use it to see they shouldn’t have started. Lmao

[PackLandVA]

Is there a rule that will allow a "do over" for Suzuki?
