Photo by: The Associated PressWASHINGTON — A game delayed three times because of a lighting malfunction was suspended after five innings Friday night with the Washington Nationals leading the Los Angeles Dodgers 3-2.
The game is scheduled to resume Saturday at 2:05 p.m. EDT.
The game on Friday night was a stop-and-go affair. Each of the three delays was caused by a bank of lights on the third-base side going out. The first stoppage occurred in the fourth inning and lasted 1 hour, 22 minutes. Play resumed for nine minutes before the lights went out again.
Los Angeles led 2-1 in the middle of the fifth inning when the second delay occurred. It lasted 40 minutes.
