Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders News Release

MOOSIC, PA - The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders game against the Worcester Red Sox on Friday, July 21, was suspended after three innings due to a lighting issue. The RailRiders and Red Sox will continue Friday's game on Saturday, July 22, playing to a full nine-inning completion before a seven-inning game for the regularly scheduled contest.

Tickets from tonight's game will be treated like a rainout and can be redeemed for any remaining home game during the 2023 season. Find out more information on the RailRiders Rain Policy on the team's website.

Scranton/Wilkes-Barre took a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning when MLB rehabber Greg Allen scored on a wild pitch by Shane Drohan and rehabber Jake Bauers crossed on a bases loaded catcher's interference call.

The RailRiders extended the lead in the bottom of the third when Carlos Narvaez took a 1-0 offering from Drohan 413 feet to centerfield with a runner on for a 4-0 edge.

Before the top of the fourth, play was halted due to a lighting issue on the right field side.
