I'm begining to think Mother Nature is not a baseball fan. For the third straight day, the Portland Sea Dogs have been postponed due to field conditions. Saturday’s game was scheduled for 1:00 PM at Hadlock Field against the Connecticut Defenders (Giants). Opening Day and the Championship Ring Ceremony are now scheduled for Sunday, April 8th at 1:00 PM, weather and field conditions permitting. No make-up dates have been announced for any of the three postponements.

Fans with tickets for April 5th, April 6th, or April 7th games may exchange their tickets at the Hadlock Field Box Office for a ticket of equal or lesser value to any 2007 Sea Dogs’ home game, subject to availability. Any questions regarding tickets should be directed to the Sea Dogs Box Office at 207-879-9500 or by email to tickets@seadogs.com.

An April 5th snowstorm dumped a foot of snow in Portland, one of the largest April snowstorms ever to hit Portland, and the largest snowstorm of the season. Sea Dogs’ officials spent Friday removing snow from the field. The snow has now completely been removed from the infield and the outfield has lost more than seven inches of snow since the storm hit on Thursday. Sea Dogs personnel will continue the snow removal on Saturday in an effort to play on Sunday.
