PORT ST. LUCIE, FL – Friday night’s game between the Clearwater Threshers (31-10) and St. Lucie Mets (10-31) has been suspended due to inclement weather. The game will be resumed with the Mets batting in the bottom of the first inning on Saturday, May 27, at 4:00 pm at Clover Park.
The suspended game from Thursday will be made up on Saturday, beginning in the bottom of the first at 4:00 PM Eastern time at Clover Park and going the full nine innings. Following the conclusion of the nine-inning game, the second game of the doubleheader will be played in seven innings.
The first game of Saturday’s doubleheader is a continuation of the suspended game on Thursday, May 25, where Justin Crawford recorded the game’s only hit on an infield single off Mets starter Layonel Ovalles with one out in the top of the first. Otto Kemp walked but was stranded on second after a groundout ended the inning. As the Threshers were preparing to enter the field and warm up before the bottom of the first, the umpires sent them back to the dugout after a flash of lightning appeared past centerfield.
The Threshers return to BayCare Ballpark on Tuesday, May 30, against the Dunedin Blue Jays (Single-A, Toronto Blue Jays)... You can purchase tickets for Threshers games at ThreshersBaseball.com/tickets or by calling 727-467-4457.
