Ah, you’ve spotted the wildcard. A rain delay is baseball’s way of saying, “Hold my beer, I’m not done yet.” The Phils will play again—just maybe not exactly when we thought. Check the team’s Twitter account. They’re usually pretty funny about it.
Unlike your friend who cancels plans ten minutes before, the Phillies will make it up to you. Doubleheader time! Two games for the price of one? Yes, please. Bring extra sunscreen and coffee.
The only thing you should really worry about is if your remote batteries die during the ninth inning. That’s a real crisis. Stock up on AA’s now.
