Been watching weather, and while it's possible Friday night might struggle through being playable, just seems to make more sense to play a double header on what's shaping up to be a beautiful Saturday. Anyone with more insight or thoughts on when they might make the call?

Does anyone know how this works for tickets if the Saturday double header happens? I have tickets for Saturday but not Friday. I'm wondering how it will work

Game 1 would honor Friday's tickets and Game 2 would honor Saturdays tickets. Pretty sure this is how it would work, not 100% though bc game 1 would be a reschedule of Friday's game

You have tickets for the second game, whenever it gets played.

Weather Underground (which I find is usually good at predicting timing) has moved the peak chances around a bit such that the peak times are now from 2-6. So, moving it up doesn't appear to be an option, and waiting it out could be iffy.

Always interesting times when storms brew up. Winds will be blowing in on Saturday.

Likely a double header Saturday. Forecast looks bad Friday, but great, low temps, Saturday.
AKA 13-0

My guess it would be the reverse since Saturday's game (Game 2) is already scheduled as an afternoon game, hence I think they'll opt to make the postponed game the nightcap if there is a double header on Saturday.

Edit: I misread this post. You are correct they'll designate they which game tickets will be used for each game. I think they'll make Game 2 tickets the afternoon game of a double header and Game 1 tickets the nightcap.

It's definitely looking like a Saturday double-header.

I would imagine a Saturday double header… But also the weather for Saturday doesn't look that great either. Could they do a doubleheader on Sunday?

Saturday shows to be sunny in the high 70s all afternoon. It'll be great double header weather.

I'm just looking at the weather app and saw 55% for Saturday but it doesn't show hourly. Glad to see it's going to be gone by afternoon

All the rain chances for Saturday are before 6am. It's going to be a beautiful day

We played the Arkansas Friday game late (8:00pm start) last year to let rain pass. We got that great pitchers duel too. I think we won 1-0.

Is there a deadline for them to make a call about moving tonight's game?

I'm loving the idea of a double header tomorrow at noon with a high temp of 74 degrees!

No. I think if we were going to get much advance notice, they probably would have made the decision yesterday. I think they are going to wait on developments and not make the call until it actually appears that we can't play tonight. I'll be bringing the rain down with me on my way from Wichita Falls.

I'm thinking between noon-2. It's all scattered and isolated until then. By 3, it's supposed to be widespread storms.

So any idea is there a deadline to make the game change to a Saturday double header or it could be any time?

No deadline

In theory they could let us all in the stadium to not watch anything and then tell us to come back tomorrow…

It's looking like Tstorms this afternoon/evening some of which could produce hail and/or strong winds in addition to heavy rain.

A doubleheader Saturday is looking really good, and Sunday will be nice too.

So far all the radars are looking pretty solid rain. The intensity level has gone down, but it's weird. It rained a little more last night than I was expecting so maybe some of it pushed through early.

They made a call last week to move a game up two hours with no real rain probabilities but aren't making this call. We will see.

If we go double header, would they keep the saturday game 1 start time the same or move it up?

It's also less about the rain and more about the chance of lightning within 8 miles. Brutal impact on pitching rotation to have to start and stop like that. If it was just rain and no thunderstorm forecast, I'd put better odds on playing tonight. Still surprised they haven't made the call yet.

I would think they would move it up to noon or one.
