For the second time in three days, the Dayton Dragons and West Michigan Whitecaps were postponed by rain in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The Dragons and Whitecaps hoped to complete a suspended game and then play a nine-inning contest on Saturday, but thundershowers throughout the area forced the night’s activities to be postponed until Sunday. The postponement was announced after a delay of about 1 hour, 45 minutes.

The Dragons are 26-19 after their first 45 games, in first place,1 1/2 games ahead of the Lake County Captains in the East Division of the High-A Central League.
