Rain outs or delays

[BleacherCreature]

Anyone see either of these happen yet? I know it’s been mentioned as a new thing this year but in 13 games played with my team and the rest of the league simulated I have yet to see one.

Rain outs aren't in the game.

Rain delays I have seen one. Lasted 45 minutes.

I have also played 2 games in the rain where there was no delay.

They should be though. Rain outs and unexpected double headers are a fact and a way of life in baseball. Every team gets affected by them every season (OK, most teams do, maybe not necessarily every single team).

I would love the unexpected challenge of a game being rained out and then having to manage my way through a doubleheader the next day with a season and battle worn bullpen.

I thought there were both, but haven’t seen any delays. I actually haven’t even played a game in the rain yet. Maybe I’ll set one for rain and see what happens.

Exactly my thoughts too. I like the idea of having to piece together a bullpen during a doubleheader. Similar to the other day when I played a 13 and 14 inning game back to back and my bullpen was toast. I had to send down and call up 2 pitchers for the next game, which thankfully was only 9 innings.

How do you get rain in franchise mode?. Is it random or do you have to select it at the beginning of the game options

Weather is random in franchise mode. But you can select the weather you want prior to the game.

Its on the same screen that you select Presentation and Theme.
