Suspended game not completed within same series
 

As was the case last night between the Yankees and Orioles at Camden Yards, who becomes responsible for the game once it resumes, if it is unable to be resumed within the same series as the originally scheduled game, for whatever reason? In the above case, it just so happened to be the series finale that was suspended, so, they couldn't complete the game until prior to the opener of the next series between the two teams at Camden Yards.

Are you asking where the resumed game must be played, or are you looking for the umpiring crew that will work the game.................


Tim.

Notice the modification I made to the quote (in parentheses); because, I would've thought that, if the same crew wasn't, by pure luck, scheduled for the next series at Camden Yards, whichever crew was in fact assigned this series would've followed their rotation like normal, from either Wednesday or Thursday, as if nothing happened, and then just continue as such for the regularly scheduled game. The other thing I was considering was that, MLB might've considered this a "double header," per se, and followed protocol for those.

Oh, since that's what you're asking I have no idea. I don't really care what crew works a particular game or series.


Tim.

The game falls to whatever crew is assigned to that stadium for the series.

For example: crew #1 worked the original game between the two clubs. Now in this meeting, crew #4 is assigned to the series. So crew #4 gets the extra game.

It's me and me crew, and we're here for a screw, said Barnacle Bill the sailor.
