Rain Rain Go AWAY! — ALCS Game Postponed

**According to Heidi Watney of MLB Network, tonight ALCS game (Game 3) has been postponed.

Tuesday's game is now Home Game 1, ALCS Game 3 for ticket holders, and will be played at 8:07E / 7:07 Central

Game 4 will be a 4:07E / 3:07 Central start on Wed

Game 5 will be played at 4pm Eastern (3pm Central) on Thursday if necessary.

With Game 3 of the ALCS upon us, the only thing that could slow these "Rolling Royals" down is Mother Nature. With rain expected all day it is beginning too look more and more likely that this game will be moved for the sake of TV ratings instead of a delayed start. MLB is expected to make an announcement this afternoon about whether or not they will play, and if not, what the rest of the series will look like.



The Star reported last night that if a postponement occurs the games will all be pushed back one day. So if you have a ticket for tonights game, in the event they do rain it out, you now have a ticket for tomorrow night's game. Tuesday's game will become Wednesday's, and Wednesday's day game will most likely become a day game on Thursday. MLB would not speculate times for the games, however, due to the need to get back to Baltimore for Friday nights game, I would anticipate Thursday being an early game so the teams can fly out, and get settled as best they can for Friday.

The only real decision left to be made will be for Wednesday. As of now the game is scheduled for 3 p.m. CST. This may change in an effort to maximize TV ratings as it is no longer a get-away-day. So lets hope the rain holds off, and the Royals can play tonight instead. After Friday night in Baltimore, we have learned a little rain can't stop this "Blue Streak!"

**MLB has stated they are going to wait until 4p.m. CST to make a decision, and 610 Radio is speculating that it will a game time decision, as the weather seems to be breaking up right around game time. So we may actually have baseball tonight folks!
