Some possible reasons for a Baseball game to be suspended are either a curfew imposed by a law, artificial light failure, severe weather, a preset time limit, or the game has ended with a tied score. Before artificial lighting was available games the major reason games were suspended was based on severe weather.

Baseball isn't always canceled when it rains. It all depends on how much rain is expected to fall according to the weather reports. If there is a possibility of the infield becoming muddy, the game will be delayed. That's why the grounds crew covers only the infield with a tarp and not the outfield.

Games are delayed when it rains because lightning can be dangerous to fans as well as players and a wet field not only makes top notch play impossible but is dangerous to the players.
