BAL is much improved. There is some rain around the park as of 5:45 but it is in the process of leaving. All of the other thunderstorm activity should remain to their north. I would put an in-game delay at 10-20%.
PHI is a different story. A mass of thunderstorms will not miss them. They could start delayed or have an in-game delay. If the game starts on-time, arms are not safe. Bats are not completely safe either as there is a 15-20% PPD risk.
All other games are safe for bats. COL has a very small chance of a delay.
BAL and PHI will be played in muggy and warm conditions. This will help the ball carry. Also, this will be one of Atlanta’s warmest home games so far on the season, so look for the ball too carry well there too.
