- It will be interesting how the rain delay, which will be more than two hours, hinders Delmon Young and Victor Martinez. Such injuries require treatment. Such rain delays throw off the timing of those treatments. At least it is not cold and rainy at Comerica Park. Just rainy.

- The Rangers are much better equipped than the Tigers to deal with another rain delay, should it happen early in the game and is long enough to knock the starting pitchers from the game. They just have better bullpen depth.
