Baseball Philippines Rainout

Baseball Philippines championship game today was called off due to unplayable conditions at the Rizal Memorial stadium. This will mean another week wait before we find out the champion for Season 3.

Baseball is a game of statistics. But Baseball Philippines officials overlooked one important statistic. The statistic for weather.

Rain is normal for the months of July and August. Roughly 40 percent of the annual rainfall occur during these two months. Rain during the four months between June to September account for 70 percent of total annual rainfall.

Baseball league and playoff games should be avoided during these months. Ideally the games should end by the month of May.
