PawSox Game Postponed Today (Tuesday) At McCoy
Today's (Tuesday's) scheduled International League game between the host Pawtucket Red Sox and the Syracuse Chiefs at McCoy Stadium has been postponed due to inclement weather and a forecast for heavy rain throughout the afternoon. The game will be made-up as part of a doubleheader during Syracuse's next trip to McCoy on June 21st at 5:35 pm.
Fans holding box seat tickets or general admission tickets (without a specific rainout date printed on them) for Tuesday can trade those in for any remaining regular-season game at McCoy.
This is the second home rainout this season for the PawSox - the other came on Opening Night, April 7 vs. Buffalo. Pawtucket had just one home rainout all of last season (April 20, 2015 vs. Buffalo).
The 1st-place PawSox will enjoy their first scheduled off-day of the season tomorrow (Wednesday) before resuming this home and home series with a 4-game set in Syracuse continuing on Thursday night at 7:05 pm. The Sox will be on the road for a 7-game trip through May 4 (four in Syracuse and three more in Lehigh Valley) before returning to McCoy on Thursday, May 5 for a 4-game series (and homestand) vs. Rochester.
