After two rain delays, Greensboro Grasshoppers set to face Bowling Green in playoffs

The Greensboro Grasshoppers have held their own in 2021 and displayed a season for the ages in the Pittsburgh Pirates Minor Leagues.

Leading the entire system with a 74-46 record— a .617 winning percentage— as 28 games over .500, the Grasshoppers leaped into the playoffs as a legitimate threat in the High-A playoffs.

Two cancellations due to inclement weather have legitimately rained on the team’s parade and prevented Greensboro from hosting the first round so far against Bowling Green.

The two teams were set to face off on Tuesday, then Wednesday, and will attempt to make third times a charm on Thursday at 6:30 p.
