BROCKTON, MA- Tonight's Brockton Rox game with the Nashua Pride has been suspended until tomorrow at 5:05 PM due to rain and unplayable field conditions at Campanelli Stadium. The Rox lead the game 5-2 in the top of the fourth. The game will resume tomorrow at 5:05 PM at Campanelli Stadium. Nashua will have SS James Lofton at third base and RF Mark Hamilton at first with two outs in the fourth at the resumption of play tomorrow. The game will be a nine-inning regulation game, with tomorrow's regularly scheduled game beginning 30 minutes after the final pitch of the first game. The second game will be a seven-inning affair.
