Thunder started to rumble right around first pitch and grew more menacing as the first inning came to a close. The managers of both teams gathered at home plate and decided to try to wait out the storm sheltered in cars. After 30 minutes in the Newman parking lot, we decided to give up the fight.
We were wise to surrender to the weather this afternoon, but the Red Wings will not surrender to the Durham Bulls. We will play this one sometime over the next couple of weeks. I will let you know as soon as we get it scheduled.
Whenever we do play this one, it's going to be quite a battle. Top notch pitching on both sides, two stacked lineups, and both teams are solid defensively. Should be a lot of fun!
