Although I do remember watching the first ever Marlins game that was delayed by rain, back in their expansion year; I think it was on ESPN. It was pretty hilarious. There was a huge, sudden Florida-style downpour, and the grounds crew clearly had no idea what they were doing. It took them a while to figure out how to unroll the tarp, and then when they did, wind kept kicking it up and blowing it out of place. It must’ve taken them 15 minutes to get the infield covered.

Good news for Giants fans.

The Sanchez game is pretty much a wash.
