If we need to cancel a game, we'll immediately put a story on the website describing any details of when the game will be rescheduled and how to redeem your tickets. We will also update the office voicemail message to explain the weather and its effects on the game.

• If the rainout occurs three (3) hours after the gates have opened, regardless of how much of the game has been played, all Pregame Picnic and Deck Area tickets will be considered used in full and can only be redeemed for a reserved seat for another game during the 2013 regular season, based on availability.
