West Michigan Whitecaps News Release


EASTLAKE, OH - The West Michigan Whitecaps regularly scheduled ballgame for Wednesday against the Lake County Captains has been postponed due to wet grounds at Classic Park.

Scattered rain showers in the Eastlake area fell throughout the evening. Despite the infield being covered with the tarp, unsafe conditions for the entire playing surface led to postponing a Whitecaps game for the first time this season.

The 'Caps and Captains will make up Wednesday's contest in a Thursday doubleheader at 4:00 pm. Thursday is scheduled to be the first doubleheader for West Michigan this season, a scenario that held a Whitecaps record of 6-6 in 2022. Both contests will last seven innings, with the second game beginning 30 minutes after the conclusion of the first.

UP NEXT
