BOSTON — After more than an hour of heavy rain, thunder and lightning in the Fenway area Tuesday night, the Red Sox-Reds game was suspended — and will finish Wednesday.

The middle game of the three-game series between the Cincinnati Reds and Boston was suspended because of rain with the Red Sox leading 2-1 heading into the fourth inning and will resume as part of a day-night doubleheader on Wednesday.

The Cincinnati Reds trailed the Boston Red Sox 2-1 when the tarp was pulled onto the field after the end of the third inning Tuesday.
