In lieu of an actual recap - since there wasn't anything to recap - here's the blow-by-blow account as it came over Twitter. With illustrations 'n' stuff.
.@jodyoehler OK, now batting practice is being called. Looking pretty nasty all of a sudden. Haven't heard of a delayed start yet though.

Still haven't got the tarp down. They're saying up to 60 mph winds.

Dbacks-Rangers game will be delayed. No expected start time. They're going to try to get the game in, though.

Another Thunderstorm is on the way to Arlington, TX with dangerous lightning & high winds. They WILL try & play tonight. #Dbacks delayed.

Game is delayed. Once storms move through it will be an hour to get field ready.
— Jody Jackson (@Jody_Jackson) May 29, 2013
They say the field is going to take at least an hour to get ready to play. That's if the rain stops.

Tarp back on. I'm told field is still in pretty bad shape. I'm sure the crew here will do all they can to get game in twitter.com/Jody_Jackson/s…

Tonight's game is being postponed due to unplayable field conditions. One game tomorrow. Make-up at later date.
