Gwinnett Stripers News Release
COLUMBUS, OH -For the second straight night, wet weather got the best of the Gwinnett Braves on their Ohio trip.
The G-Braves and Columbus Clippers were tied 1-1 with the Braves batting in the top of the fourth with two outs and two on, when heavy rains in the Columbus area forced a suspension of play.
The game will be resumed from the point of suspension on Wednesday with the first pitch at 5:35 at Huntington Park. The resumed game will be a nine-inning game followed by a seven-inning game between the two teams approximately 20 minutes later.
The scheduled pitchers for Wednesday's second game in Columbus will be right-hander Eric Junge (3-1, 3.52) for the G-Braves and right-hander Zach McAllister (2-1, 3.00) for the Clippers. Listen to the broadcast on WDUN AM 550 and FM 102.9 in Gainesville, Georgia with Tony Schiavone calling the play-by-play.
Earlier in the day, the Gwinnett Braves announced that Monday night's game in Toledo, Ohio which was postponed due to rain will be made up as part of a doubleheader at Coolray Field on Friday, May 11. Both games are scheduled to last seven innings, with the first pitch of game one slated for 5:05 PM.
