KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- A sluggish and slow-moving rainstorm gave the Kansas City Royals' exhausted bullpen exactly what it craved. The Boston Red Sox, in the midst of playing 32 games in 33 days, probably didn't mind taking a night off either.
Monday's game in Kansas City was postponed when forecasters decided the cold, steady rain was not going to take the three-hour evening break that weatherman had been predicting since noon.
The game will be made up in a day-night doubleheader on Wednesday, with first pitch in Game 1 at 2:15 p.
