Phillies' Citizens Bank Park Denies Rumor of Wedding Conflicting with Makeup Game

Rumors circulated that the host Philadelphia Phillies and Cincinnati Reds were waiting out a lengthy rain delay on Wednesday at Citizens Bank Park because a wedding was taking place there the following day, thereby knocking out a common off date where the two teams could easily make up the game.

However, a ballpark representative clarified that a wedding isn't the occasion blocking the teams from playing.

Jim Day of Bally Sports Cincinnati reported Wednesday that Citizens Bank Park is booked Thursday. No official reason was provided.

Thursday's activities at the ballpark ultimately became a moot point, as the Phillies pulled the tarp off the field just after 7 p.m. ET to play ball later that evening.
