Sox/Sox game postponed

It's official: tonight's game between the Bosox & Chisox has been postponed and will be made up as part of a doubleheader tomorrow.

According to the Globe's Amelie Benjamin and the Hawk on WGN (damn Extra Innings!), the rain stopped for a while around 9:30EST and the crew was clearing the tarp, the field was draining and the players were milling about the dugout.

But then another round of downpours began, and that combined with how long it would take to get the field ready relative to the already late hour made it a pretty easy decision to call the game off.

Still no word on how Tito will handle the staff, but don't be surprised if Beckett goes in GM1, Tavarez in the second game at 7:10 and then Schill & Wake over the weekend.

Oh well, looks like the potential late night just turned into an early one. Time to check out what's on HD Net.
