Rain lets up, Twins game in Texas now scheduled for 9:15 p.m.

UPDATE: The tarp is being pulled, though a light rain continues to fall. Assuming it gets no heavier, the Rangers say, first pitch will take place at 9:15 p.m.

ARLINGTON, Texas — Saturday night's game against the Rangers will not begin on scheduled at 8 p.m. A heavy thunderstorm rolled through the area around 5 p.m., followed by a steady, if much lighter, rain that has yet to let up.

The game, starting an hour later than usual in order to satisfy requirements of MLB's television contract, will begin 45 minutes after the tarp is removed, the Rangers announced, though there is no indication yet when that will be. Check back for updates on the game's status.

Ricky Nolasco will start for the Twins, against former Twin Kyle Lohse, who will be making his Rangers debut.
