would you expect to be paid if?

I would give them a normal "rain delay" time to correct their lights and then call the game and expect to be paid at least a half game fee.

I had a game last year where I showed up on a beautiful day only to learn that the sprinklers had gone beserk and wet the field down to unplayable condition. Game was called, but no one called me to tell me so. I expected a half game fee and got it.

I had a game this year where I called the school before leaving work because it was raining where I was, and they said they wanted to try to play the game. So I made the trip, and then my partner and I dicussed that the field was unplayable and the coach agreed. I have not been paid yet, and game was April 8. I sent an email to the school and no reply yet.

If one pitch is thrown, in any game, I expect a full game fee if the game can not be completed.
