The game was quickly suspended, and will be made up as part of a modified doubleheader tomorrow beginning at 5:05 PM. This game will be completed in its entirety, while the second game will be a seven inning game beginning thirty minutes after the final out of the first game. A modified pregame show will air on ESPN 980 The Sports Zone beginning at 4:50 PM.
