MLB cancels game less than 90 minutes before start.
Just before I posted my previous message I checked the MLB web site: game on. Now the game has been called.
How many fans had already left for Yankee Stadium? How many fans had already arrived in the pouring rain? It was obvious that it would rain during the entire time that the game would be played. The only question was whether MLB would stage another Saturday night travesty as it did seven days ago.
Why wait so long to do the only intelligent thing?
MLB has nothing but disdain for fans who attend games in person. Those fans have been loyal to a fault. One day that will change and MLB will be unable recover. It will be too late. MLB will stage a big game in bad weather and the ballpark will be empty.
