any chance we can get a guess on the Toronto roof status? looks like there's some thunder/lightning in the area while I want the roof open for a Jays play

GIBSON in Kansas City

Pouring a little west of Toronto. My guess is it's also pouring IN Toronto. I'd expect it to be closed.

 

[Slurve~Ball]

Rain in Toronto is probably finished for today. However, still overcast and roof is closed right now. And will probably stay that way.

 

[nbafan88]

Reynolds in Toronto
Little in Detroit
Demuth in Citi Field
Bill Welke in Southside Chicago

 

[Hollywood Beaker]

Roof open in Seattle. Roof status in Toronto is still up in the air (no pun intended). If I could put money on it, however, I'd be betting that it'll be closed.

 

[Hollywood Beaker]

Fairchild in Denver

 

[austinhous]

Bellino in StL

 

[CollegeKingRex]

They are opening the SkyDome roof. No doubt Dickey begged someone.

 

[nbafan88]

yup open

 

[Gaius.T]

i am not sure, but i think i read that it messes with the knuckler if they open shortly before the game, but could also be the other way around.

 

[nbafan88]

It's the other way around. The humidity gets trapped in the stadium and messes with the knuckler

[Hollywood Beaker]

Carapazza in Dodgerland.
Tichenor presumably in Seattle.

Reynolds in Toronto
Little in Detroit
Demuth in Citi Field
Bill Welke in Southside Chicago

Looks like it's Johnson in Chicago (not Welke) and Emmel in Detroit (not Little). Damn fuckery.

FWIW, Little will go tomorrow in Detroit and Johnson replaced Welke for whatever reason (same other 3 umps in the crew).

HB just want to thank you again for what you do here....:hello:

Gregg Zaun just stated how stupid it was for the Jays to open the roof with Dickey on the mound. He then went on to say that they got lucky because it was so humid outside due to the rain during the day. So, what I'm getting from this is that the humidity helped the knuckleball move around more.

Ugh. I'm not sure what the deal is with MLB.com and Tichenor. That's the third time in about three weeks that they've shown him behind the plate when it was someone else.

 

[Hollywood Beaker]

Wait a minute...that's not right. Cuzzi just worked the plate in Seattle yesterday.

 

[Hollywood Beaker]

MLB.com, Yahoo and ESPN all showing Tichenor.
