Braves vs. Red Sox rain delay chat and discussion

"In the middle of the sixth inning of a game where the Atlanta Braves were firmly in control of things against the Boston Red Sox, the skies suddenly opened up. First, they were able to play through a bit of hail but once they went out there for the bottom of the sixth inning, the bottom completely fell out and the grounds crew was forced to stop play."

"They're not anticipating this to be a long delay (just one of those pop-up storms) but there's still a pause in play. We'll let you in on any updates that may come up soon, so stay tuned."

The Atlanta Braves were leading the Boston Red Sox in the middle of the sixth inning when sudden weather disrupted play. Hail initially fell, but the game continued briefly. During the bottom of the sixth inning, the storm intensified and the grounds crew stopped play because conditions became unsafe. The delay was expected to be short, described as a typical pop-up storm. Updates were planned as conditions changed, with the expectation that play would resume after the weather passed.
