Schaumburg Flyers News Release
SCHAUMBURG, IL-Despite the heroic efforts of the Alexian Field groundscrew, today's game against the Kansas City T-Bones was canceled due to rain. Over 7,000 Flyers fans waited it out as long as they could before heading home.
Today's game was going to be the third and final home game against the T-Bones, so it will be made up in Kansas City on Tuesday at 6:00pm as part of doubleheader at Community America Ballpark. Those games, along with Wednesday's game in Kansas City, can be heard on flyersbaseball.com.
