Well, you know the rest. It has been raining since Wednesday of last week and just stopped early Sunday morning. Other sports tough it out and play in any weather that's out there. Except for the occasional lightning storm, soccer and football and other sports play through anything. Not true with America's past time. Would you want to step into the batter's box in the rain with pitchers throwing a wet ball? You could get one in the ear!
You would be surprised how much baseball coaches know about the weather. The rain we have been getting is coming from the Gulf of Mexico due to two high pressure areas in the East and West of the Midwest. Those high pressure areas are drawing moisture up from the Gulf and dumping huge amount of rain from Texas to Missouri. The bulk of the storms have been in Texas, where extreme flooding has threaten many peoples lives.
For us, it means we have been sitting around and had to postpone 4 games. We have not played since Tuesday of last week. The clouds have broke and we are practicing today and head down to Junction City, MO for a game tomorrow.
Talk to you then.
