DH starting @ 3:00 Friday. Game 3 on Saturday.

Since the greatest chance of rain is on Saturday, I presume the third game will likely be moved back to Sunday if necessary?

Based on the current forecast, it seems unlikely that they will actually get two games in on Friday. It sounds like they have adjusted the schedule to provide the best chance of getting three games total during whatever breaks in the rain happen to occur.

At about 2 pm on Friday, the 77005 temp is 88F with a feels like temp of 96F. Ugh. Maybe Charlotte will wilt quickly.
