While the Kansas City Royals managed to not let a rain delay get in the way of getting into the win column – thanks to some unusually incredible heroics – the hope is always that a wrench like that won’t immediately get thrown into their plans again.
However, no one can control Mother Nature no matter how much we might want to and the Royals once again find themselves in the all too familiar situation of a rain delay once again in their critical series against the Minnesota Twins at Target Field as storms roll in.
Come in with the rain…

So when can Royals fans expect Game 2 against the Twins to resume?
We know it won’t be at the original 7:15 p.m. CT, however it’s tough to say exactly when we can expect to get this Friday action underway as the forecast looks rather gloomy this evening.
The region has been under thunderstorm watch for much of the day and there’s around a 50/50 chance for storms leading all the way through 8 p.m. CT. Beyond that though, precipitation chances begin to dwindle moving into 9 p.m. CT and beyond. However, the thunderstorm warnings remain through 10 p.m. CT.
When the action does get underway though, it will be Michael Wacha taking the bump for the Royals while the lineup will see Twins righty Zebby Matthews.
We’ll be sure to keep this post updated as more news becomes available on a potential restart time.
