High-A Greensboro, Low-A Bradenton get rained out

Sunday afternoon the Greensboro Grasshoppers were slated to finish their series against the Bowling Green Hot Rods. Well, unfortunately, Mother Nature would have other plans for the Grasshoppers and Hot Rods.

The High-A affiliate of the Pittsburgh Pirates had their game cancelled due to rain. This was slated to be both the series finale and the season finale for the Grasshoppers. With the rain out, Greensboro will finish the 2022 season with a 58-70 record.

The Low-A Bradenton Marauders were also rained out on Sunday. Their rain out, however, was much more costly.

After being rained out against the Clearwater Threshers the Marauders will finish the season with a 67-62 record. However, with the rain out, the Marauders find themselves half a game behind the Dunedin Blue Jays at the end of the day. Due to this, the Blue Jays will be division champions and move onto the postseason while the Marauders miss the postseason.

Now that both High-A and Low-A have seen their seasons come to an end, it will be intriguing to see if any players from either squad earn a promotion to Double-A Altoona before their season ends next Sunday.
