Kiwi Toby Findlay shines as Woodhouse Grange race to derby win against Stamford Bridge
Some did, some didn't - on a day when the rain and Duckworth-Lewis calculations dominated, there was a mixed bag of some teams dodging the showers to get a result, others starting but not finishing, and a few never starting.
Woodhouse Grange Kiwi, Toby Findlay, made sure history did not repeat itself in the derby with Stamford Bridge.
In the first game of the season Findlay hit a double century at Stamford, only for the home side to be saved by the weather when Woodhouse were poised for victory.
This time seamer Findlay took 4-31 and spinner Jack Dyson 3-11 as Stamford Bridge were hustled out for 88, then the Kiwi all-rounder blasted 55 from 23 balls as Woodhouse reached their target in the ninth over.
Woodhouse 2nds were bowled out for 159 at Sessay, Steve Burdett celebrating his England O50s tour selection by top scoring with 58. But the game was abandoned after just one over of Sessay's reply.
And back at Woodhouse the 3rds found the wicket flooded and never got started.
Woodhouse 4ths had a dramatic tie at Stockton & Hopgrove, the home side setting 202-3 from 30 overs and the revised D/L target seeing Woodhouse ending with a tie at 133-4 in 20 overs thanks to Gav Wright's 67.
All Sunday's games were rained off.
Londesborough Park impressed with a 50 run home success, Tom Rook (69) and Harvey Laverack (63) the mainstays of their 192-4 and the young pair shared a 143 run partnership for the second wicket.
Then six Park bowlers shared the wickets to dismiss Harrogate for 159.
Londesborough Park 2nds' game fell foul of the rain.
Pocklington CC 1sts lost by four wickets in a rain-affected game at home to Pickering.
The top seven batsmen all made starts for the home side, but none of them pushed on to make a big score as Pock were dismissed for 181 in 49.2 overs, Harry Snelling top-scoring with 31, while Cameron Mitchell made 23, Andy Anderson 22 and Will Atkinson 20.
Pock took two early wickets to give themselves hope as Pikes stumbled to 13-2, but the visitors won with 182-6 from 38.4 overs, Harry Colins taking 2-56.
Pock 3rds had dismissed hosts Church Fenton for 144 before rain stopped play at tea, while Pock 2nds only managed 14.3 overs at Fairburn 2nds, the hosts making 60-0.
