OTM Open Thread 5/6: Rain, rain go away
Briefly

In a rainy Boston, the Red Sox prepared to face the Texas Rangers, with concerns about the game potentially being postponed. Notably, the post recalls a unique 2012 game against the Orioles that lasted 17 innings and included remarkable performances, including Chris Davis's late-game heroics and a grand slam from Will Middlebrooks. The reflection not only acknowledges the excitement of those moments but also encourages fans to engage positively as they support their team amid uncertain weather.
On this day in 2012, the Orioles beat the Red Sox 9-6 in 17 innings. Chris Davis outdueled Darnell McDonald as both teams ran out of arms.
I'm skeptical of them getting a game in, but with the Rangers not coming back to Boston this season, they may try to avoid postponing.
Will Middlebrooks hit a grand slam as well in the game that took just over six hours, one of the weirder games I can remember.
As always, be kind to one another, and Go Sox.
