August 14th vs Chicago

[riverside sluggers]

ugh thought it was finally over but guybo has started up again with the renterria bashing ********, but yet at the same time he wants millar to stay simply because he knows how to talk to the media, im just not seeing the logic

If it gets rescheduled, I would expect to see a day game on Monday, September 5. Boston has the day off in between home series against Baltimore then Anaheim, and Chicago has the day off in between home series also. Chicago's day game on Sunday, September 4 makes it possible to travel that night, play Monday, travel Monday night, and make it back for the Tuesday night game.

hoping for a situation like that, hate to see yankees grab an extra game on us after a loss in 3 1/3 innings

[ORS]

I won't be a loss if they don't play any more. The rules say you need to finish 5 innings for an official game.

 

EDIT: Or 4.5 if the home team is winning.

[riverside sluggers]

yeah i was thinking about that, thank god at least it would still be 4.5 game lead over the yanks

[yankeessuck013]

if they reschedule it, would they just continue starting at the 4th inning?

[schillingouttheks]

Yes.

[Sox Fan on Cape]

Yes.

No. they wouldn't. They only do that in a "suspended" game (a called/suspended game due weather or darkness/ curfee after the official limit and tied). They will reschedule "as needed" meaning that if it has no affect on the standings it would not be replayed.

[Sox Fan on Cape]

This game has to go 5 innings or 4 1/2 if we're ahead ( which we're not ) to become official. In that case the team ahead wins. If it doesn't meet this criteria, then it is no game ( meaning everything is wiped out ) and they state again at another date.

[yankeessuck013]

( meaning everything is wiped out ) and they state again at another date.

 

so a 0-0 game all over again?

[Sox Fan on Cape]

so a 0-0 game all over again?

Unless they restart, if they don't it starts a all new. Meaning you can pitch who ever you want and any line-up you want.

[yankeessuck013]

please don't restart.....please don't restart

[ORS]

The races for home field advantage, division, and wild card are all too close for this game to be meaningless, so I'm envisioning it being replayed on Sept. 5 (unless they decide to wait until the end of the season). If the game is called, the make-up game is a BRAND NEW GAME starting in the first inning 0-0.

I said that. They will make every effort to make the game official ( pray for long, long, long, rain ). But its up to the Commish Office to decide whether to reschedule and when after the end of the season ( if the two teams can't work it out in the schedule ).

[ORS]

There is a good opportunity on 9/5. Both have the day off. Boston is between two home series. Chicago has a day game at home the day before. It's only about a 2.5 hour flight from Chicago to Boston. If they play a day game, Chicago is back home in the early evening to prepare for their next home series starting Tuesday night. I'm not saying it will happen. But that is the best possible time.

[yankeessuck013]

i was just watchin the astros game and the astros catcher was playing shortstop.....and he turned a double paly.

[Sox Fan on Cape]

Not that the either Sox care, but think about the poor bastards that paid inflated prices from, eBay, Stub Hub, other ticket brokers, scalpers, etc, parking, soverigns, food, etc. If the game is not replayed, they're totally screwed ( in they bought their tickets from a season ticket holder that passed down the line to them ) because a refund will be applied against the season ticket holders account. If they bought them directly from the Red Sox, then they still out the gas, parking, food, time, etc. No to mention, it they, and their guests, can make the rescheduled game.

[Sox Fan on Cape]

If they restart the game, and continue playing, this could be a record for the longest game thread ( while the game is still on ).

[yankeessuck013]

it might alrady be a record- 7 hrs 30 mins, so far

[yeszir]

It's because its so damn annoying since the teams dont face each other again and they can only play tomorrow, throwing travel plans into chaos.

[RedSoxRooter]

Game over. Officially called by NESN.

[yankeessuck013]

good

[yankeessuck013]

adam sterns play in the 1st inning was the #2 web gem on Baseball Tonight

[riverside sluggers]

plans said could even be after the regular season ends which is on Oct 2 against the Yanks

[mosox]

good sign this game was called. It didn't look good from the start and chances are both the Sox and Chicago won't have to replay it. Now it's on to the longest road trip of the season: 7-3 would be nice.

But with the way we've been playing at home, .500 would be acceptable.

[soxie thefangirl]

They said they'll find a mutual off day.

[mosox]

Sure .500 would be acceptable, but 6 games between Detroit and KC, it's time to build on the lead. A split in Anaheim would be great.

Both teams have Sept 5 off.

[BrentD22]

White Sox fans must be pissed off!

 

Do personal stats count for players and fantasy?
