— The game between the Boston Red Sox and New York was suspended in the bottom of the fourth inning with theThe Mets erased a three-run deficit on two-run homers by Brandon Nimmo and Daniel Vogelbach and had one out and a 1-2 count on Alex Verdugo at 8:20 p.m. when the umpires called for the tarp as the rain picked up at Fenway Park.
"Just when they're saying there might be a window , we heard snap, crackle, pop," Mets manager Buck Showalter said."We reached a point where Kodai was done. ... We had plans if it restarted," Showalter said."We'll see if it's going to be the same way." Once the grounds crew got the tarp in place, very heavy rain, strong winds and lightning moved into the area, with the rain forming large puddles all along the track around the park. Fans were asked to move underneath covering and security ringing the field was moved under cover.
As Vogelbach slowly circled the bases, a male fan wearing a Mets' jersey celebrated with the ball that he snagged wearing a glove in the first row.
