    Why?

    Why do these things happen? A failed trade, a two out 9th inning rain delay turned blown lead turned another rain delay? How? Why?

    Should have traded the farm for Justin Upton yesterday then he would have been in the opposite dugout

    Wait. Apparently if they can't resume the mets win because of some idiotic rule? LET THE RAIN FALL DOWN AND WASH EVERYTHING BAD AWAY!

    Something to do with the 3 run homer not allowed because the game should have been halted earlier????

    Re: Why?

    if the home team is losing, they have to have an equal amount of opportunities, or it reverts back to the previous inning. obviously if they were losing the previous inning, then theyd still lose... but since in this case, the padres took the odd numbered chance, it reverts back to the 8th, where the mets were up 7-5.

    Apparently it only comes into play when the two teams aren't scheduled to play again. Insanity.

    I didn't specifically cite the rule, but that's what I was talking about, the game would go back to the point of equality for both teams. There have been tons of rain delays that probably should have been under the rule, but's it's rarely implemented.

    Re: Why?

    the funny thing is, the amount of mets fans [not particularly lj] bitching incessantly that the game shouldnt have been stopped with 2 outs in the 9th and an 0-1 count on norris, makes this kinda funny to me. not overly hilarious or anything, since i actually like some of those said met fans... my mom mainly... but still kinda funny.

    The thing that's weird to me is that they paused it two strikes away and then resumed knowing they only had a five minute window. It's just odd.
