Snow messes up Mets vs. Rockies series in Denver

# ❄️⚾ Winter Storm Throws MLB Season a Curveball in Denver

## **Coors Field Shutters Under Snowstorm**

Denver’s baseball fever usually reaches a boil in spring, but this week, the Colorado capital has traded cleats for snow shovels. A **winter storm warning** has plunged the Mile High City into a swirling vortex of flakes, turning Coors Field into a surreal winter wonderland—one that’s grinding MLB action to a halt.

### **Game Time Chaos: Mets vs. Rockies**

- **📅 Originally Scheduled:**
- **Tuesday’s tilt** at 3:30 PM | **Postponed to Thursday** at the same time.
- **Wednesday’s game** at 3:10 PM | **Delayed until 9:20 PM** to allow plows to clear snow-clogged lots.

❄️ Forecast:
A dangerous mix of rain and snow all afternoon, transitioning to a full-blown snowstorm after 8 PM Tuesday.
4–8 inches could accumulate by nightfall, turning the diamond into a ski slope under stadium lights.

Denver’s Frosty MLB History

This isn’t the first time Colorado’s unpredictable spring weather has upended baseball:

2022: A late-May game vanished under a whiteout.
2021: April’s opener was canceled after 4–7 inches of snow buried the park.

Teams Reroute as Snow Marches On

Mets: Jet to Arizona Friday after securing a 4-2 series lead (Monday’s win).
Rockies: Head east to Philadelphia the same day.

Baseball’s schedulers rely on hope, but Denver’s April and May weather demands flexibility. When the flakes fly, even the best-laid plans can get buried.
