Wahoos Game Delayed By Lights

June 19, 2015

After nearly a one hour delay Thursday trying to repair the Pensacola Bayfront Stadium lights behind home plate, the game between the Pensacola Blue Wahoos and Mobile BayBears was delayed.

The second game of the five-game series with the Mobile BayBears will resume at 5:30 p.m. Friday and will go the full nine innings. Pensacola currently leads the game, 1-0, after three innings. Fans can exchange tickets at the box office for an equal or lesser game except for July 3.

Blue Wahoos officials attributed the lighting failure to the light poles and electricians were working to repair them. The umpires agreed to call the game to protect the hitters and fielders.

Marlon Byrd, who was placed on the disabled list June 3 by the Cincinnati Reds, ended his two-game rehab assignment with Pensacola Thursday night. Byrd went 2-7 with a home run, double and three RBIs.
