If the game is called while an inning is in progress and before it is completed, the game becomes a SUSPENDED game in each of the following situations:
(1) The visiting team has scored one or more runs to tie the score and the home team has not scored;
(2) The visiting team has scored one or more runs to take the lead and the home team has not tied the score or retaken the lead. National Association Leagues may also adopt the following rules for suspended games in addition to 4.11 (d) (1) & (2) above. (If adopted by a National Association League, Rule 4.10 (c) (d) & (e) would not apply to their games.):
(3) The game has not become a regulation game (4 1/2 innings with the home team ahead, or 5 innings with the visiting club ahead or tied).
(4) Any regulation game tied at the point play is stopped because of weather, curfew or other reason.
(5) If a game is suspended before it becomes a regulation game, and is continued prior to another regularly scheduled game, the regularly scheduled game will be limited to seven innings.
(6) If a game is suspended after it is a regulation game, and is continued prior to another regularly scheduled game, the regularly scheduled game will be a nine inning game.

Without going into a long babbling explaination, a suspended game is one that cannot end early (hence, a 4 1/2 or 5 inning minimum rain out) because it is tied or the visitors have just went ahead in the current inning and it starts to rain hard and won't stop or its too late to continue (curfew), so they have to finish either next day or next time the teams play at that field.

It is a game that is put on hold for some reason and continued at a later time.
It's like a rain delay, only longer.

it is a game that is suspended due to timeand/or weather that is SUSPENDED for a certain period of time.
THE OFFICIAL RULE BOOK SAYS:
"A SUSPENDED GAME is a called game which is to be completed at a later date." thats the exact definition.

when it is rescheduled for a new day to continue from where it ended.
