Storms hit Fenway Park on Tuesday and produced some amazing skies

Tuesday night was a bit of a mess in Boston, as the Red Sox had to start and stop their eventual 9-2 victory over the Twins multiple times due to the weather. At roughly three hours past the scheduled first pitch, they had not even completed three innings.
The happy byproduct of the rain was a plethora of beautiful pictures from Fenway Park that would look great on a postcard.
The initial rain delay created a scenic sky afterward, including a rainbow:

The two teams finally resumed play again at 10 p.m. ET, but at least the atmosphere gave the fans an awesome spectacle to pass the time before the Red Sox win.
