Predictions from some quarters that there would be a deluge of Biblical proportions proved to be incorrect. Though it was hardly ideal baseball weather (Jody Jackson had her poncho on again!), today’s game in Washington started on time, and proceeded to its conclusion without any weather-related interruptions. There will therefore be no need for the team to fly back to Washington on Monday for a make-up game. Though since the Nationals are now 2.5 up on the Dodgers for NLDS home-field advantage as they head into the final series, it looks less likely that would have been necessary.
