BUFFALO, N.Y. — The Buffalo Bisons home opener against the Worcester Red Sox has been postponed due to wet and unplayable grounds, team officials announced Tuesday.

Ticketholders can exchange their tickets for a comparable ticket to any remaining 2023 Bisons game (excluding July 3). All ticket exchanges must be made at the Sahlen Field Box Office. 

"Regrettably, we have to postpone Tuesday’s Bisons game at Sahlen Field because the condition of the field will not allow for safe play for the Bisons and Red Sox players," Bisons General Manager Anthony Sprague said in a statement. "A series of unfortunate and unforeseen events began this weekend when high winds destroyed our field tarp. Through the generosity of a great partner, the Rochester Red Wings provided us with their secondary field tarp in the hopes of that holding up to last night’s and this morning’s rainfall. Unfortunately, the heavy rains penetrated through to the infield, and the lack of sun and wind this morning did not give the field time to adequately drain for today’s game. Certainly, this is not how we envisioned starting a fun-filled Bisons season in downtown Buffalo. However, we remain excited to get the season started soon with the best fans in minor league baseball."
