The Rockies and the human rain delay

The Colorado Rockies have experienced their fair share of weather-related delays in their history. Rainouts (or snowouts) are commonplace in baseball and Mother nature typically has no regard for if a baseball game is played or not. Sometimes, it happens in the middle of a game and turns what would have been a three-hour game into a five-hour game. Weather is uncontrollable and so rain delays are just a natural part of things that we have accepted in the world of baseball.

And then there are human rain delays.

It’s a classic joke.
