Rain threatens to further delay the Red Sox game against the Royals
Over the Monster • • sports
Key Points:
- The Red Sox and Royals game at Fenway Park has been indefinitely delayed due to steady rain expected throughout the morning and much of the afternoon.
- The game’s start time was initially pushed back from 1:35 PM to 3:05 PM, but further delays are likely as rain is expected to clear only by late afternoon or early evening.
- Meteorological models suggest conditions may improve around 5:00 PM, which is when the tarp could be removed and preparations for play can begin.
- MLB is motivated to complete the game today, given there are only 13 games left in the season, making it a waiting game until weather conditions become playable.
- Fans and officials will monitor radar closely as they await the clearing of precipitation to proceed with the game later in the evening.
