How is it decided whether an in-progress rainy game will be canceled or just postponed? It is such a bust that the first time the Yanks and Pirates tried to play this game the Yanks were on their way to a win but had to suffer a loss tonight.
section 4.10 of the offical mlb rules: (c) If a game is called, it is a regulation game:............ (d) If a regulation game is called with the score tied, it shall become a suspended game. See Rule 4.12. (e) If a game is called before it has become a regulation game, the umpire shall declare it “No Game.” (f) Rain checks will not be honored for any regulation or suspended game which has progressed to or beyond a point of play described in 4.10(c)
in other words, since the game was called before the 6th inning and the score wasnt tied, it was considered a "no game" and therefore had to be replayed.
In 2009 Curtis Granderson published a book: All You Can Be: Dream It, Draw It, Become It! Granderson "shares the lessons that he learned growing up--the importance of family and choosing the right friends, the power of listening and staying positive, and most important, the value of being yourself."
