Northwest Arkansas Naturals News Release


SPRINGDALE, Ark. - The Northwest Arkansas Naturals game against the Tulsa Drillers, the Double-A Los Angeles Dodgers, has been suspended tonight - Thursday, August 8th - due to continued heavy rain at Arvest Ballpark with the Naturals trailing the Drillers by the score of 3-0 with the game entering the bottom of the fifth inning.

Tonight's game will resume tomorrow afternoon at 4:30 p.m. in the bottom of the fifth inning with no one on and no one out with Northwest Arkansas behind Tulsa, 3-0. Tomorrow night's regularly scheduled game will now be a 7-inning affair following the conclusion of the suspended game but starting no earlier than 7:00 p.m. Gates will open at 4:15 p.m. at Arvest Ballpark.
