Baseball black eye

Sitting at the road office watching the Giants and Cubs late last night or rather watched a guy with a rake playing in the mud.
The Cubs led 2-0 after four and an half innings when a downpour hit the friendly confines and the Chicago grounds crew couldn't get the tarp down for over ten minutes and flooded the field.
The teams then endured a rain delay of well over four hours before the game was canceled and since the game had lasted four and a half innings (the minimum with the home team leading),it became official.

When you consider that the Giants are in a pennant race,this becomes a bad joke on the game and the league office should allow the Giants appeal of the loss and allow the game to be a suspended game and finish the game at a later date (you could even say that it could be finished only if the game affects a playoff spot) right where the game left off.
Weather in baseball is one of those things that cannot be controlled,but last night in Chicago was an event that could have been controlled and baseball needs to do the right thing.

I don't really have much else to say other than to stay tuned at the end of the minor league season (less than two weeks away) as I have plenty to say about various things.
These include the stadium situation in Fredericksburg,who and how it affects in Hagerstown,more from the signing front and some feelings on a less than stellar year in graphing....
