The Rangers, on pace for one of the worst records ever by a defending World Series champion, are still finding time to set records.
The Texas Rangers take shelter in the dugout as rain pours down during the first inning of a baseball game against the Chicago White Sox, Tuesday, Aug. 27, 2024, in Chicago.once had a game postponed due to toxic acid fumes. Had another postponed due to heavy winds in the first inning, even thoughon pace for one of the worst records ever by a defending World Series champion
, and the White Sox, flirting with the worst record in the 162-game era, started a game in the rain at Guaranteed Rate Field and got exactly four pitches in before the heavens decided: “Nope, not watching this tonight.”The game was delayed one minute after the official first pitch and then suspended 90 minutes later with storms still hovering over the ballpark.
In the Rangers bullpen, Heaney had also warmed up fully in expectation of starting. He, too, had questions. “I’m no weather expert, but when you see giant black clouds moving in like that, you figure it’s going to rain,” he said. “I figured it would come and go quickly.”If there was a silver lining for the Rangers in a season that has had none, it is this: It means they don’t have to face White Sox ace Garrett Crochet. The lefty, with a history of elbow problems, is not expected to start the resumption on Tuesday. Erick Fedde will start that. The White Sox are TBA for Game 2.
