Oran semifinal moved to 4 p.m. Tuesday, third-place games back on

Posted Tuesday, May 28, 2013, at 10:45 AM

The Class 1 baseball semifinal between Oran and Sturgeon has been moved back for a fourth time. The game is now scheduled to start at 4 p.m. Tuesday even at T.R. Hughes Ballpark in O'Fallon.

Rain has fallen here most of the morning and it continued to fall as of 10:40 a.m.

The entire tournament has now been pushed back a day, meaning the only games played today will by the Class 1 semifinals. As a result, the Class 1 and 2 third-place games, which had be cancelled, are now back on. If Oran wins today, it will play for the championship at 1 p.m. Wednesday. If it loses, it will play for third place at 10 a.m. Wednesday.

From what I understand everything is pushed back a day. Haven't seen anything updated on the MSHSAA bracket yet.

Mandm96, maybe the tents will be dry by the time you get here. BTW, there is a 5 Guys about 15 minutes away!
