Oh, the whacky goings on in the Cal League.
Monday night's California League game between Boston affiliate Lancaster and Dodgers affiliate Inland Empire was suspended at midnight with the score tied 3-3 in the top of the 16th inning.
According to California League rules, no inning may begin after 11:50 p.m.
As an added bonus to fans arriving early tonight on $2 Tuesday at San Bernardino's Arrowhead Credit Union Park, the teams will resume the suspended game at 6 p.m. to be followed by the regularly scheduled game.
Adding to the fun, the Dodgers and Red Sox made a trade last night with L.A. sending triple-A pitcher Eric Hull to Boston for single-A shortstop Christian Lara of Lancaster.
As a result of the deal and the suspended game, Lara will have started the suspended game on Lancaster's bench but will finish the game in a 66ers uniform.
