WEATHER UPDATE: The Reds have announced that first pitch will be delayed and that there is no scheduled start time for this afternoon's game. The next update is set for 11:30 a.m. St. Louis time, which was the scheduled time for the first pitch. As we approach 11 a.m. St. Louis time, a steady rain continues to fall at Great American Ball Park.
CINCINNATI • With rain expected throughout the day here in the Queen City there is no guarantee that the Cardinals and Reds will play on time or play at all, but if they take the field for the final game of a three-game visit at Great American Ball Park there will be one certainty at shortstop.
