JACKSON- The Millsaps Majors and Mississippi College Choctaws have halted their game in the bottom of the fourth inning due to rain and unplayable field conditions.
The game is set to resume right at the point when the game was called when the teams meet again in Jackson on April 1st. The situation will be bottom of the fourth inning, runners on first and third with nobody out and Mississippi College leading 6-4.
The teams agreed to suspend the game after rain had been falling for the better part of two innings. The umpires and teams did everything they could to keep the game going, drying off the pitching rubber and softballs every few pitches. Eventually, the rain and the buildup of water became too much and the game was suspended. Coaches had agreed with the home plate umpire to resume a potentially suspended game at a pre-game meeting.
The Majors will head to Shreveport tomorrow to take on the Centenary Ladies. First pitch is set for 4 and 6 pm for the double header.
