Cleveland Guardians postpone division-title celebration due to weather forecast
CLEVELAND -- The Guardians might as well keep umbrellas in their bat rack.
Cleveland was forced to postpone a celebration and flag-raising ceremony Tuesday to honor its AL Central title before the opener of a three-game series against Tampa Bay due to a rainy weather forecast.
The pregame pageantry has been pushed back until Saturday before playing Kansas City - for now.
This is nothing new to the Guardians, who have been dodging rain drops all season.
Due to Cleveland's disagreeable, ever-changing weather, the Guardians have been rained out 10 times at Progressive Field this season, forcing the club to play a major league-high eight doubleheaders - six at home.
