Midland RockHounds News Release
Predicting the weather forecasting isn't always an "exact science," but the prognosticators were right on the money with their Wednesday forecast for Corpus Christi.
Heavy rains made the field (specifically the centerfield warning track) unplayable by late afternoon and the game between the RockHounds and Hooks was officially rained out.
The clubs are now scheduled to play a double-header (two, 7-inning games) at Whataburger Field, beginning at 4:05 Thursday afternoon.
Weather had already been a factor in the series, with Tuesday night's opener ending in the last of the ninth inning when the rain became too heavy to continue. Corpus Christi had two runners on base with two out, trailing 7-5, when the game was called.
