It's way too cold to play baseball in Denver; Rockies and Phillies game postponed - Sports Pros(e)

 Major League Baseball decided to move the game back after a snowstorm blanketed the area and iced over roads. Tonight's game-time temperature was expected to be around 25 degrees, which would have made for the most frigid postseason game ever.

while the powers that be pondered all that, they were all heaving a humongous sigh of relief that MLB didn't force them to play Saturday in conditions more suitable for an Olympic bobsled final than a pivotal postseason baseball game.

With temperatures expected to dive-bomb into the teens, snow all over the interstates and freezing drizzle in the forecast, this was no way to decide two teams' baseball seasons -- although it definitely would have been entertaining, in an Iditarod kind of way.

"If it snows, man, I don't think nobody can prepare for that," said Rockies catcher Yorvit Torrealba on Friday. "It don't matter if you're from Montana. You can't prepare for snow."


My whole life I've been an Oakland A's fan, but today I'm pulling for the Colorado Rockies.
Imagine the havok if the Rockies make it all the way to the series.

The damage to the AGW propaganda machine would be incalculable.

GO ROCKIES!
