Game #124 Overflow: Pray for runs or rain
by soco on Aug 18, 2011 10:35 PM EDT
Email
PrintWe just endured over 2 hours of rain delay, and now the D-backs have a half inning to either get another rain delay, or enough runs to prevent this game getting called against us. Luckily the Giants have already lost 1-0, so the D-backs can do no worse than stay 2.5 games up. Obviously we want to pile on.
So pray for runs, or pray for rain.
