Well, they just pulled the tarp onto the field, which is not usually a great sign. The rain is getting here a lot earlier than expected, and it should start any minute now.
In these situations, here's how the radio broadcast will operate: We will begin the pregame show as scheduled at 12:40 PM. We will proceed with the pregame show until gametime at 1 PM. If we're ready to go at 1 (or even a little after), we just move into the game as normal. If it looks like there is going to be a longer delay, I send it back to the national ESPN Radio feed and cut in every 20-30 minutes with updates on the situation. I always try to keep you as up-to-date as possible. I don't typically update the blog during the game, so just keep checking back in with ESPN Radio to know whether the game is going to get played and when.
If and when we do play, here is the Silver Hawks starting lineup:
Broxton - CF
Owings - SS
Borchering - DH
Davidson - 3B
Nick - 2B
Stone - 1B
Diaz - RF
Hollinger - C
Estevez - LF
Smith - SP
I don't have a pregame interview recorded as of yet. I'll either get one of the coaches or just do a standings update in the third segment of the pregame show today.
UPDATE: It's 11:20, the rain just started to fall. I've also decided that now is a good day to update the Midwest League standings and league leaders to familiarize the listeners with what else is going on around the league. We'll do that in the pregame show today as opposed to an interview.
