Moment of Levity: The Big Picture
NIGHT BALL IN COLORADO
Just because there are still late summertime temperatures here in D.C. and up and down the East and West coasts doesn't mean that everyone in basking in the heat. The Rockies hosted the Padres and, well, the few die-hard fans who did stick around to see the final out (the Rockies won a squeaker after entering the top of the ninth with a five-run lead) were bundled, wrapped and swaddled. Ok, so they weren't really swaddled, but that's about as close as you can get. (David Zalubowski/AP)

That's brutal. Is there any reason why they didn't think of building a retractable roof on Coors Field when they built it? The place is barely 10 years old. They had the technology available.
Playing baseball in sub freezing temps really sucks for everyone involved. Home team included.
