Rain, rain, go away, the Cyclones won’t be back here on any other day
While the rain stopped in time for Tuesday’s game, the weather wasn’t quite so cooperative tonight. The rain started around 3pm and was well underway by the time the gates opened at 6pm and all of the Jack Kerouac bobbleheads were snapped up by people who probably weren’t planning on watching the game anyway. By the time I got there, the only way to describe the stadium, the field, and the few die-hards ready to see a game was “soggy mess.”
By game time, with the rain picking up, the announcement we were all waiting for was made. The tarp wouldn’t be coming off the field, the game was cancelled, and you can try your luck exchanging your tickets for tickets to an upcoming home game. (But only in person at the box office, which is open weekdays from 10am-4pm. In Lowell. Not exactly what I would call convenience.) With no more Cyclones games on the schedule and not a whole lot of room in the NYPL schedule to cram another game in, this game will not be made up. Good thing I got my Gavin Cecchini and L.J. Mazzilli autographs on Tuesday. Barring something unexpected, this concludes our minor league game coverage for the year. See you next year.
