Phillies-Rockies Game Snowed Out!
Hey Al Gore… Where is your God now?
Colorado manager Jim Tracy suspected this might not be a night for baseball when even his dogs wanted to skip the morning walk.
Major League Baseball agreed with Tracy’s beagles.
Game 3 of the Phillies-Rockies playoff on Saturday night has been postponed because of cold, snowy weather.
Snow covers the playing surface of Coors Field, seen from the main concourse Saturday in Denver.
Major League Baseball rescheduled the game for Sunday night at 10:07 p.m. ET, and Game 4 was pushed back to Monday, at a time to be determined. Game 5, if necessary, will be played as scheduled on Tuesday in Philadelphia, without a day off for travel.
“I think it’s a very wise decision,” Tracy told The Associated Press by phone. “You could have something happen in weather like this where you could lose a player for half a year in 2010. I don’t think that would be good for anybody.”
