The MLB has decided to postpone Saturday’s scheduled NLDS Game 2 between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Washington Nationals due to rain, but it sounds like at least one of the players involved doesn’t quite agree with the decision.
Shortly after news of the postponement broke, Dodgers third baseman Justin Turner posted a funny tweet questioning the curious lack of rainfall he was observing at the moment in Washington, where the rainout occurred.
At least there hasn't been a drop rain in the last 2 hours ?

The 31-year-old Turner, who helped the Dodgers to victory in Game 1 with two hits including a home run and two RBIs, has good reason to be irked now that his groove at the plate is being thrown off by the rescheduling.
Game 2 will be played on Sunday instead, so it will be worth watching to see how the delay, the latest of many weather-related ones recently in the sports world, will affect Turner and the rest of the players on both sides.
