Thursday May 12 had eight games on the MLB docket but Dodgers-Pirates was postponed due to rain in Pittsburgh. So the first two segments of the day went off as usual for weather and the S&P.

But when the MLB scores for the day were being collected, the rainout caused the day's count to drop to seven games - below the requisite eight in order to have action. The first two segments were scored as usual below:
Rk | Nm | NYC | S&P | MLB | Total |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Biff Tannen | 98 | 126 | 0 | 225 |
2 | Neil McCauley | 31 | 108 | 0 | 139 |
3 | Will Munny | 59 | 68 | 0 | 128 |
4 | Pike Bishop | 28 | 44 | 0 | 73 |
5 | Hans Gruber | 0 | 37 | 0 | 37 |
6 | Marko Ramius | 0 | 31 | 0 | 31 |
7 | Fredo Corleone | 26 | 0 | 0 | 26 |
8 | Shelly Kaplow | 16 | 0 | 0 | 16 |
Biff, Neil and Will were situated very well entering the final segment of the day and the rainout in Pittsburgh may have cost them a shot at a high finish for the day. Instead the day was downgraded to a non-action day and all the scores were thrown out.
In that way the results are very much akin to how a baseball game is handled when called due to rain but failed to complete a minimum of five innings. The results are thrown out and the game is restarted at a later date.
The results were completely lost to me also until I discovered a browser window I happened to leave open on my work computer.
