Perhaps They Start The Season Too Early?
Really?  Ice damage???

https://www.mlb.com/news/ice-falls-on-ro...-272436116

Quote:Falling ice at Rogers Centre postpones KC-TOR

Quote:The Blue Jays' series opener against the Royals on Monday in Toronto was postponed due to ice falling on Rogers Centre from CN Tower, the club announced about 90 minutes before the scheduled first pitch of 7:07 p.m. ET. The clubs will play a traditional doubleheader on Tuesday, starting at 3:07 p.m.

The club was working to repair the damage to the stadium's roof, which was caused by falling ice from the tower, which sits next to the stadium.


Sheesh.

Jesus, that thing is like 1800 feet high, ain't it?

Hate to be outside and get clonked with an icicle falling that far.

Yeah, seems a bit early for bessball too

KC was probably thinking the weather had to be better in Toronto.

We just had 15 inches of snow and our season is already underway! (And Target field is an open air stadium.)

Yeah, that's the bigger issue isn't it. It damaged the roof of a large building so I can just imagine what it would do to a person. It would probably be like getting conked by on those anvils the coyote is always trying to drop on the road runner.

Sounds like a deicing system is in order.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
