First Rainout in Trustmark Park History

Well it took 104 games for the first official rain out in Trustmark Park history as the rains started falling around 4:15pm (CT) and were still going at 7:30pm (CT) when the word finally came that game was cancelled. The Braves will have to wait one more day to try and extend their winning streak to two against Mobile.

The Braves continue their five game home stand at Trustmark Park in Pearl, Mississippi Wednesday night as they take on the Mobile BayBears, the AA Affiliate of the San Diego Padres, in games two and three of the series.
