Friday’s game between the Atlanta Braves and Washington Nationals well be delayed due to storms are moving into the DC area. We will pass along updates here as they become available.
Of course since this is Washington, remember that the “rain” part in rain delay is sometimes optional.
The start of tonight’s game is officially delayed
The good news: It seems like we avoided the worst of the storm here. The bad news: It’s still going to be raining lightly for a while. The big question: Would they start the game before it stops altogether?
