Gwinnett, Pawtucket Postponed by Rain
August 28, 2012 - International League (IL1)
Gwinnett Stripers News Release
LAWRENCEVILLE, GA - Steady rain resulting from a changing weather pattern forced the postponement of Tuesday's scheduled 2:05 PM game between the Gwinnett Braves and Pawtucket Red Sox at Coolray Field. The game will be made up as a single nine-inning contest on Wednesday, August 29 beginning at 1:05 PM. All tickets for Wednesday's game will be free to the public.
As a result of the rapidly changing weather ahead of Hurricane Isaac, Wednesday's game was originally postponed with a doubleheader scheduled for Thursday, August 30 starting at 5:05 PM. That doubleheader is on as planned. With Wednesday now serving as the make-up date for Tuesday's postponed game, the Gwinnett Braves have decided to make all admission for the 1:05 PM game free of charge. Thursday's games will still feature regularly-priced tickets.
Fans are advised to continue checking in at gwinnettbraves.com for updated details on the remaining games of this final homestand. For tickets, call the Coolray Field Box Office at (678) 277-0340.
