Whoops, I deleted my post because I heard him clarify that he would suspend the game for as long as it took and I already got quoted. And you're right--a game can be suspended as long as he wants to suspend it, and now the rules support him. Good job, Bud!

Of course, Bud's tendency to take the path of least resistance might come in handy for him if he wanted to try umpiring.
