Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, and sometimes it rains

The immortal words of Ebby Calvin “Nuke” LaLoosh describe not just last night’s game; they also capture something about the 2021 season for the Braves.

After a rain delay that last over three hours, the second game of Wednesday’s doubleheader between the Braves and the Padres was suspended in the middle of the fifth inning with the Padres leading 5-4. Under the rules in place since last year, the game was suspended, so the teams will pick up where they left off. (Before that rule change, they would have wiped out what happened and started the game over from scratch).
