Rain Delay Halts Florida‑Georgia SEC Tournament Game
The scheduled SEC Tournament showdown between the Florida Gators and the Georgia Bulldogs was interrupted by an unexpected rainstorm just as the game entered its seventh inning.
At 3:51 p.m. Eastern Time, the Gators held a 7‑4 advantage when the umpire called for a delay, prompting a brief pause in play.
Organizers have slated a restart for 4:50 p.m. ET, hoping the weather front will clear quickly enough to finish the contest.
The outcome will determine which team advances to the championship game, where they will meet either Arkansas or Auburn.
During the pause, Florida was in the midst of a pitching change, with closer Joshua Whritenour slated to take the mound.
According to the SEC Network broadcast, meteorologists expect the precipitation to move out rapidly, raising optimism that the game can resume on schedule.
