Lake Monsters at Batavia Game Rained Out

Vermont Lake Monsters News Release


BATAVIA, NY --- Sunday afternoon's New York-Penn League game between the Vermont Lake Monsters and Batavia Muckdogs was cancelled due to rain at Dwyer Stadium. The game was the final meeting between the two teams this season and will not be made up, meaning that Vermont is now scheduled to play a 75-game season instead of 76.

It is the third time this season that the Lake Monsters have had the final game of a road series postponed due to rain, but the first time it occurred in the final meeting between the two teams. Earlier this season Vermont had series finales postponed at Brooklyn and Tri-City, but made up both rain outs as part of doubleheaders at historic Centennial Field.

The Lake Monsters head into the New York-Penn League All-Star break as the Stedler Division leader with a 28-27 record. Vermont, which has won three straight after a four-game losing streak, entered play on Sunday with a two-game lead in the Stedler over the Connecticut Tigers (25-28) who are scheduled to play at State College Sunday evening.

After five Lake Monster players (Sean Jamieson, Chih-Fang Pan, Tanner Peters, Nick Rickles and Jeff Urlaub) take part in the New York-Penn League All-Star Game at Lowell on Tuesday, Vermont returns home to Centennial Field to begin a six-game homestand on Wednesday at 7:05 pm against the Mahoning Valley Scrappers. The Lake Monsters will play a pair of three-game series against the Scrappers and the Hudson Valley Renegades Wednesday through Monday, August 22nd.
