Home Opener 4/3 Update: Game Time Moved to 2:10

[shingo10]

Any chance the start time gets moved up because of the weather forecast? Tuesday also doesn't look great so just wondering if there is precedent for this.

Got 30k+ tickets sold I doubt they will tell people they have to come early. Would be weird if both days were rained out might have doubleheader opening day.

Edit: well never mind then.

They did that a few times during 2020 - of course there were no fans to account for.

That must be what I'm remembering. Well. Just hope for the best I guess.

When was the last time a home opener has been rained out? I remember there was a LONG rain delay in 2006.

I was there we stayed for the whole game.

I'm glad they did this...hopefully it works out.

2017. They waited hours to call it when there was zero chance of playing. Thankfully, I had 300-level seats that day, so we were able to wait it out inside.

Memories of 1982- rain/snow led to an opening day "twi night" doubleheader.
(we road tripped from U of I with a pony keg in the back of our rented van)

Only way to do it…. The only thing missing is a flight attendant handing out the peanuts.

I drove from Wisconsin, got wet, paid for parking-food-beer, and ground back out of the city during rush hour with nothing to show.
