B次元官网网址淲eather update: Due to our stadium having a roof, todayB次元官网网址檚 game will be B次元官网网址� Played as expected,B次元官网网址� the since deleted tweet read, punctuated by a winking emoticon.

B次元官网网址淧erhaps this potential postponement is karma, because the Blue Jays have done a lot of bragging about having a roof, particularly after having games postponed in Cleveland,B次元官网网址� Grathoff wrote a couple of hours before the team confirmed that MondayB次元官网网址檚 game was a no-go.

The Blue Jays were scheduled to play a weekend series at ClevelandB次元官网网址檚 Progressive Field, but the Saturday and Sunday games were rescheduled due to rain.

The JaysB次元官网网址� account sent out a few tweets over the course of the weekend, taking mild jabs at the situation in Cleveland in the belief that postponements couldnB次元官网网址檛 happen in Toronto, where the weekend weather B次元官网网址� a mess of snow and freezing rain B次元官网网址� was much worse.

TonightB次元官网网址檚 game has been cancelled due to inclement weather causing damage to our roof. We apologize to our fans for this inconvenience. Further info for those with purchased tickets to the game will be shared shortly. TomorrowB次元官网网址檚 game will be a 3:07 p.m. traditional doubleheader

But chunks ice falling from the CN Tower damaged the roof and allowed water to seep into the stadium. Workers toiled to close the roof and the team laid out a tarp to cover the affected areas of the field, but the Jays called off the game about 90 minutes before the scheduled first pitch.

Many on social media, included some Toronto fans, sided with Grathoff, saying the Jays may have jinxed MondayB次元官网网址檚 game by boasting about their stadium that proved to be not as weather-proof as thought.

The Jays and Royals will play a double-header Tuesday at Rogers Centre.

Incidentally, the Royals were the opposition the last time a game was postponed at Rogers Centre, back on April, 2001.

Going down through the hatch.
