Mets Move Game Times Ahead of Cold Weather
Citi Field, Queens, USATuesday, April 7, 2026
# ❄️ Mets Adjust Game Times to Beat the Cold Front ❄️
The New York Mets have made a strategic move to shield fans and players from the impending Arctic blast heading toward Citi Field.
**Game Times Shifted:**
- **April 7 vs. Diamondbacks** → **4:10 p.m.** (originally 7:10 p.m.)
- **April 8 vs. Diamondbacks** → **4:10 p.m.** (originally 7:10 p.m.)
A biting cold front is set to sweep in, bringing **blustery conditions** and **near-freezing temperatures**—hardly ideal for baseball.
What to Expect from Mother Nature
| Date | Conditions | Temp | Wind |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tuesday (4/7) | Mostly clear, bone-chilling | 31°F | NNW 15–25 mph |
| Wednesday (4/8) | Clear, slightly milder | 35°F | SE 10–15 mph |
Fan Perks Amid the Chill
The Mets aren’t just asking for flexibility—they’re rewarding it:
- Free tickets for a limited number of fans (first-come, first-served).
- Vouchers for future games for all ticket holders.
- Early access to beat the cold:
- Parking opens: 2:40 p.m. (both days)
- Gates unlock: 3:10 p.m. (both days)
A brisk night at the ballpark just got a little warmer—at least in terms of goodwill.
