Monday’s series opener between the Atlanta Braves and San Diego Padres has been delayed by rain. The forecast doesn’t look great but for now at least, things are just delayed.
We will pass along updates here as soon as they become available.
The start of tonight’s game will be delayed. But they are currently removing the tarp. No start time set yet.

The grounds crew is currently pulling the tarp so hopefully this won’t be a lengthy delay.
A new starting time has not been announced. No players are on the field. Starting pitchers have not begun warming up in bullpens.
But the national anthem was just performed.— Kevin Acee (@sdutKevinAcee) July 19, 2021
Appears the field is ready but it is now raining again in Atlanta.
Welp, it isn’t looking good
The tarp is going back on the field.
