*** Official Chicago White Sox @ Kansas City Royals Game Thread (4/8) ***

I have a feeling that the Royals may have a quick trigger for this. If it was just a thunderstorm watch then maybe they wait till close to game time, but the forecast discussions from the NWS are talking about possible tornadoes. If they still think that tornadoes tonight are a possibility by about 5:30pm or so, then the Royals are not going to want people to leave home. You can't send 15,000 people from your parking lot to drive around in a tornado watch box.

There's still a chance that the forecast could change dramatically this afternoon to the point where rain is no longer likely and we could then get the game in, but if not then the Royals are probably not going to mess around with this.
