ICYMI: Rockies vs Reds PPD Due to Water Main Break

((ht:9news.com))

It's been a crappy year for the Colorado Rockies. Injuries, poor performance on the field and misspelling player names for promotional giveaways have all but ruined the season.

As of Saturday night, you can add a new calamity to the list of Rockies problems--though this one wasn't entirely their fault.

Saturday night's game versus the Cincinnati Reds was postponed because of a water main break outside Coors Field. The break caused most of the stadium to lose water pressure, making the bathroom's inoperable and concession stands all but useless.

The game was rescheduled for Sunday night as part of a day-night doubleheader. The two teams already were slated to play at 2 pm (mountain time) and the Rockies are slated to retire former star Todd Helton's jersey at that time.

Tickets for Saturday nights game will carry over for the Sunday night game--but not Sunday afternoon's version...

IndyCar Toronto Goes Twice On Sunday

((HT: NBCSN))

The rain came plowing through the streets of Toronto yesterday and the IndyCar series was supposed to have two points races over a weekend. The whole weekend got condensed after two false starts and matching red flags.

How bad did it get...??? The pace car didn't even escape...


And in the second restart, Will Power ended up backwards...


The races were supposed to go two hours or 85 laps each.
The weather has moved everything to 65 laps and 90 minutes each Sunday.

But the cars didn't even get out of Lap 1 before wrecking everyone from 10th on back as rookie Luca Filippi got into Simon Pagenaud. The first race was red flagged Sunday as well while they cleaned up Turn 10.
