Rained Out 4/16/10 + Transactions

Arriving at the game after a short shower and one glance at the radar on my iPhone I knew from the start that this game didn’t have a chance of finishing.

The stadium was predictably full, it is Friday night fireworks and all. The stadium crew manned the tarp before the 1st inning was over and pretty soon the lightning started. It wasn’t long after that the game went into delay and I got in my car and left. I found out the delay had turned into a suspended game about an hour later and 2 bites into my steak at Outback. I was warm, dry, fat and happy! The game will be played later in this season.. the date can be found pretty much everywhere, can’t think of it off the top of my head and I don’t feel like clicking anymore than I have to tonight. We did get to see JC Romero again…

As an added bonus tonight, I found some transactions you might be interested in…
