Even with Saturday's heavy rain and flash flood warning, the San Diego Padres game against the San Francisco Giants will continue as planned, the team announced on Saturday morning via X, formerly known as Twitter.
The game starts at 4:14 PDT and as of 10:41 a.m., will NOT be delayed, according to the Major League Baseball website.
The move was decided after Padres officials met with MLB and National Weather Service officials on the expectation that the rain would let up significantly before first pitch and throughout the evening.
