Friday evening’s matchup between the San Diego Padres and Cincinnati Reds will be delayed briefly due to rain. The game was initially scheduled for a 7:10 p.m. EST start but will now begin at 7:20 p.m. EST instead following a brief delay.
The ten-minute delay isn’t too bad, but reports indicate the rain is coming down hard in Cincinnati. Further delays are possible if the rain doesn’t let up soon. There must be a buffer period for things to dry off before they can throw out the first pitch.
DraftKings Sportsbook lists the Padres as -126 favorites on the Moneyline with the run total set at nine.
Dylan Cease is scheduled to take the mound for the Padres. On the other side, former Padre Nick Martinez will toe the rubber for the Reds. Stay tuned to DK Network for live updates on the rain delay.
