Hmmm,
The answer was really in one of the posts:
At the American Legion Western Regionals and the American Legion World Series all weather related games were handle by the suspended game rule.
Because the tournament needed to determine a winner the games would have been suspneded and restarted at that point at a later time.
HOWEVER, during the American Legion season each league can use the rules that they incorporate.
In my area of Oregon we also played the suspended game rules for all league games. Non-League games were normally just canceled.
So Walter, while I do not think this answers your question, the ultimate answer is, "areas" handle things differently.
(As the ultimate example in my area of Oregon all American Legion games are played under National Federation rules, are seven innings games and allow re-entry. That is NOT what American Legion rules are).
