No rain outs are not a part of the game.

Any idea why? It seems odd for all rain showers to be temporary.

Pretty sure it has to do with the scheduling problems that would be caused by rain outs. I can only imagine the how hard it would be to program for rain outs. That being said, the rain delays do tire pitchers so that's a good thing.

There are issues trying to reschedule the rainouts. The game cannot reschedule for double headers.

AFAIK all rain showers IRL are temporary.

I am from Victoria originally. There the rainouts last about 4 months....
