Game 1 moved from Fri... Sat... Sun

_ I know the rule that a game must go at least 5 innings to be official, but in this case where the home team trails and is in the middle of an inning, does this game get cancelled or will Fla Atl. get a win if the game never gets finished? _

If they can't finish the game because of rain tonight are Sunday FAU gets the win.

FAU will get the win if this one is not finished. This is because they held the lead going into this inning and it was already an official game.

If they complete this game tomorrow, we can play at most one more game in the series. But that second game of the series does not need to be completed for it to be official. For it to be official, five innings must be played unless the Cajuns lead after the top of the 5th (which in this case it is also official).

_ FAU cannot be declared the winner. Game is currently postponed. If they are not able to get in tomorrow, then basically, the game didn't happen. _

This is not correct.

any word on a re-restart time

[GoneGolfin]

_ Looks like the game may be called in the bottom of the 9th, with the Cajuns down 5-3 and no outs. This is going to suck.

I also believe that the hitter at the plate (Les Smith) also has a 2-0 count. It is too bad that we will lose some momentum we had in the bottom of the 9th.

Has anyone heard whether Justin will be available for work this weekend? I know that Coach Robe was targeting his return for this weekend, but had not heard an update.

_ Trailing 5-3 to a team with a 10-3 record and a win over a top 20 team is considered embarrasing?
Nothing wrong with high standards but embarrasing is a bit over the top, no?

No... it is EMBARRASING to have just ONE hit going into the 9th! THAT can't be spun. That is EMBARRASING!

Trailing 5-3 to FAU is certainly not embarrassing. But getting outhit 11-1 is. It is a minor miracle that the Cajuns have mustered three runs and are even in this game.

BTW, I doubt Florida will be ranked after this weekend. They have dropped the first two at Arkansas (getting solidly beaten) and are currently 9-6.

EXACTLY, Brian. ONE hit in a game is pathetic! When you look at the bookend weekends around the Wednesday win, it just looks like a FLUKE win! Hitting so poorly before and after that win just takes all the positives out of it!

[LifeTimeCajun]

does anyone have word from the park, on when they may look to start the game again? What is the latest time tonight that they will restart the game tonight?
