Rainy season

So rainy season has started early this year.  It's been good in a way: April is the hottest month here and the rain has kept temperatures down.  But there's a problem.  The Oaxaca Guerreros, the Oaxaca entry in the Mexican league, play their games at 7pm.  And it's been raining at 7pm: last night, tonight.  And the Guerreros are in town this week.  They will probably get the game in, but it will take forever.

Most of baseball season overlaps with rainy season, so if they called games off because of rain, they probably wouldn't be able to have a team here.  In the one game I did see, the players just played in the rain.  Until it started to pour and an enormous tarp was spread over the infield.  After around an hour they took the tarp off and started again.  After 3.5 hours I left during the top of the seventh.  The Guerreros were down 8-1 at one time, and I thought there was no way they could come back.  But when I checked their website the next day I saw they had come back to win 9-8.  They didn't say when the game ended.
