I’m lazy....if they don’t get this thing going back tonight....how’s it work?
Pick up from where it is or like game never started?

Sounds about right
They will wait a long time before calling the game off. Probably 2-3 hours if necessary. This is the only trip into New York this year
How did it take so long for them to get the players off the field? That lightning was way to close for comfort for a few minutes before they finally called for the grounds crew.
Also, how do they even start a game that ends up getting delayed four batters into it? They have weather radar available to them, no?

Oh I know....I’ve been at GABP for a 3 hr 5 min (Mother’s Day Votto walkoff grand slam and 3 HR) and a 3 hr and 15 min delay, just a couple weeks ago)
Editor’s Note: wife had to work next morning and whines until we left after 9 innings....50 miles down the road Votto walks it off in maybe his top career moment and our seats were right out by where he hit it.
I believe the home team gets to decide if the game starts
The umps take over after the start

The older I get - the better I was

Braves/Nats a good game going on MLB Network. Scherzer going for his 16th and Juan Soto still being incredible
9:00 pm woohoo

That is a major bummer but that's an eternity to self entertain at GABP.
Definitely. Arrived at 12:35 for a 1:05 start....insane delay. Game started a few minutes after 4, long game and I believe they pretty much stopped concessions as the game began....but game was entertaining and going on, but it was her idea for Reds game on Mother’s Day so it was easy to give her her way
Paul Sewald in for Vargas
2-0 Reds...Gennett scores on Ervin's sac fly.
3-0 Reds, Geno scores from third on Barnhart's single.
3-0 Reds, to the bottom of the 1st..

0-10 in his career...I smell a shutdown
Isn't there an exception if its the last series in that city for the season, which is quite a lot of the time with all the games out of the division and league being in that category, that the umps control even the start?
