Just found this tasty morsel. Game 4 of the 1911 World Series between the New York Giants and Philadelphia Athletics was postponed six days due to rain. IN PHILADELPHIA. So, this whole business isn't unprecedented after all.
Of course, this isn't the first time a World Series has been postponed. In 1989, in this here city of San Francisco, the WS was held off for 10 days in the wake of a quake.
So it's raining in Philadelphia, and they've got some shit-hole Orange Juice shack of a stadium in Tampa Bay, with catwalks and on field bullpens. Hopefully the rest of the series is exciting or this is going to go down as one of the lousiest WS ever.
