"It was a gut punch. It really was," said Joe Daukaus, of Southampton. He had tickets to Game 4 of the World Series on Tuesday night, which was his day off.
But, after all the games were pushed back a day, he could no longer go to the game he had been looking forward to for a long time.
"This was the first time as an adult where I got the chance to go," Daukaus said. Instead, he is going to watch from his couch.
He told his boss about the ticket after he already gave it up. His boss told him he would have let him off Wednesday night.
"I lost the opportunity to go to the World Series," he said.

The game attracts fans from all over the world. Dan and James Lynn flew in from Montreal. They had to change their flights and figure out who would take their place at work.

According to StubHub, ticket sales for Tuesday's game spiked 25% after it was postponed on Monday. It's expected to be the best-selling game of the World Series.
