Brewers' game with Marlins suspended
Miami - The game between the Milwaukee Brewers and Florida Marlins at Dolphin Stadium was suspended tonight in the top of the 11th inning due to rain with the score tied, 2-2.
Play was stopped for the third time due to rain before the teams took the field in the top of the 11th. Under a major league rule amended over the winter, the teams will resume the game at the point of stoppage at 6 p.m. Wednesday. The teams then will play their regularly scheduled game to complete the three-game series.
The Brewers tied the score on shortstop J.J. Hardy's RBI ground-rule double to center with one out in the top of the ninth. Rickie Weeks led off with a walk, stole second with one down and scored when Hardy's drive to deep center off Florida closer Jorge Julio bounced over the wall.
The game was stopped twice by rain. There was a 49-minute delay with two outs in the top of the fifth and a 22-minute stoppage in the bottom of the seventh.
The first delay put an end to the major league debut of Marlins right-hander Rick Vanden Hurk, a 22-year-old native of Holland who never had pitched above the Class A level. The Brewers had two on with two down in the fifth when heavy rains interrupted play, and Vanden Hurk did not return.
Brewers starter Claudio Vargas did survive that first delay but exited after five innings. He allowed five hits and two runs (one earned) while matching his career high with nine strikeouts.
After the second rain delay in the seventh, many in the small crowd of 10,883 departed. When the game lapsed into extra innings, only 100 or so fans remained.
Probably doesn't bode well for the Crew. Damn, they should have won this game! Miracle catches. unreal.
God does not want the Brewers to beat the Marlins.

Good luck with making a GT, since MD wants the previous game to be over before the next game thread is up. You'll have like 10 minutes

Well, that is if we win. If we don't win, someone else makes the game thread.
That was an "in general" thing

I think for last night's game, the lineups and pitchers have to be the same as when the game ended. Then the lineups can switch for the second game tonight
