Rays-White Sox underway after weather delay

The start of the White Sox game against the Rays Wednesday at Guaranteed Rate Field was delayed by inclement weather.

The game started at 2:49 p.m.

The game was scheduled to begin at 1:10 p.m. with Sox right-hander Reynaldo Lopez (0-1, 10.00) facing Rays righty Tyler Glasnow (2-0, 0.82), but a mix of sleet and drizzle began to fall around 12:30, with temperatures in the upper 30s.

The Sox (3-7) have lost four consecutive games are hoping to avoid a three-game series sweep against the Rays (9-3). They fell behind 3-0 in the top of the first inning on Tommy Pham’s two-run homer and Avisail Garcia’s RBI single in the first against Lopez.

Leury Garcia CF
