canceled their first home spring training game since 2016 on Monday because of rain that was forecast to continue throughout the day.
Detroit was supposed to play Toronto in Lakeland, Florida, but the game was called off several hours before the scheduled first pitch at 1:05 p.m. EST.There were also rainy conditions Monday at other Grapefruit League sites in Florida, including Fort Myers and Sarasota, where teams had preemptively altered the scheduled start of games in hopes of playing later in the afternoon.The Rays will play their games this season at Tampa’s Steinbrenner Field, the spring training base of the Yankees.
Steinbrenner Field, which has about 11,000 seats, is exposed to weather, unlike the Trop. Florida summers are known for thunderstorms in the afternoon and early evening, and that even happens sometimes during spring training.
