That was my (unclear) point earlier - this was a suspended game, that was then called and then subject to the rules quoted above on the Dragons website. An unusual situation to be sure.

Yeah, very weird. There's a provision in the rules by which a suspended game may be called if it's followed by a power outage, or light failure. And that the present score stands. In the case of calling the game because there's no available date to continue it, apparently that's a special rule of the minor-league system. If that's the case, it seems like the game should never have been suspended in the first place. It appears to be a classic situation of reverting to the previously completed inning. Somebody needs to revisit those rules.Originally Posted by Hypnotoad
Hopefully Dayton will breeze into a playoff spot and not miss it by a game....
From Kevin Goldstein:
•Tony Cingrani, LHP, Reds (Rookie-level Billings): 2.2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 4 K. Third-round pick has struck out 12 over 6.2 shutout innings in first three pro appearances while allowing just two hits; big lefty with easy plus velocity.
