Mets and Rockies Shift Game Times Amid Weather Worries

The Mets finished a series win over the Angels in Anaheim and will face the Rockies next. Denver’s Coors Field has moved Monday’s game up to 5:40 p. m. instead of the original 8:40 p. m. , because bad weather is expected in the area. The change gives teams more daylight if clouds roll in. The series may face further delays. Tuesday’s forecast shows temperatures that won’t climb above the mid‑40s, with rain predicted. Wednesday could bring a mix of rain and snow, making the final game risky. The middle game is still set for 8:40 p. m. , while the last will start at 3:10 p. m. on Wednesday.Both teams have a day off on Thursday. The Mets will head to Arizona for a three‑game set against the Diamondbacks, while the Rockies will travel east to play the Phillies beginning Friday. During their first three games on the West Coast, the Mets won two out of three against the Angels. Their Sunday victory was a 5‑1 win, featuring a solid outing from Clay Holmes and two homers by Mark Vientos. Although the Mets hold the worst record in Major League Baseball, they improved to 12‑22 after that win.
