Brief Summary:

PPD threat: KC, ATL (LOW)

Delay threat: PIT (slight), DET (slight), WSH (slight)

Widely scattered showers will be across western Pennsylvania as AZ visits PIT and also in Michigan as MIA is at DET. Here are what the simulated radars for 1 PM looks like for the 2 regions:

Spotty and light and showers. Really NOT worrisome, worst case scenario would be a BRIEF DELAY. I will watch these areas but right now it does not look bad.

Another pair of games that should be fine are STL at WSH and COL at BOS. Showers or even a tstorm could develop in these warm and humid atmospheres but as of right now the simulated radars are not expecting anything to affect the games. I will keep an eye on these regions.

Tstorm coverage is expected to be a bit more impressive in northern Georgia than the 4 games above as MIL plays ATL. Here is the simulated radar for 7 PM:

THE DELAY THREAT IS LOW TO MODERATE; PPD THREAT LOW.

The game with the most concerns is CHW at KC. Severe weather is expected to be near the region. Here is a simulated radar for 8 PM:

MLB games generally are attempted to be played even with severe weather nearby. That is because that the very nature of severe weather is hit or miss. We have all heard stories about a tornado devastating a particular region but a few miles or even a few hundred yards away another region is not touched at all. As you can see in the above radar image, the individual tstorms cells are not really organized into a solid "squall" line and there is not a shield of rain expected to be near Kauffmann Stadium. So while you will hear alot of :"oh, there is no way they play in KC tonight", I would say use some caution. Could they cancel? YES. Could they be able to play in-between tstorms? Could the tstorms mainly miss them? YES and YES.

MODERATE CHANCE OF PPD OR ANY TYPE OF DELAY(S)

Good Hitting Environments:

-The 3 afternoon games in NYY, PIT and DET will see warm temperatures and thus low air density.

- A light breeze blows out to left-center and it is warm for STL at WSH.

Bad Hitting Environments:

-None stand out as particularly bad.
