The HBWHOF went to Comerica Park for Saturday night's
Red Sox - Tigers game.
It looked like a nice evening. The weather forecast said the rain wasn't supposed to hit until later at night. WRONG!
Gametime was 7:10. At 7:00 the scoreboard said the game was in a rain delay - even though the sky was clear and there were only a few isolated sprinkles. Then, around 7:10 - BOOM - the heavens opened-up and the downpour began...They called the game around 8:45 - POSTPONED.
So, it's a doubleheader today. The only consolation is...my game has now moved to the Sunday night game...which means - rather than seeing Clay Buchholz vs Andy Oliver - I NOW get the sweet showdown: Josh Beckett vs Justin Verlander!!
Here are some pics from the pre-game on Saturday night.

It was Elvis night at the ballpark - so I was hangin' with the King's disciples...
At the Elvis booth, you could even pick up a pair of the King's shades...
It was still beautiful weather when the Red Sox took batting practice...
