Snow forces postponement of Game 3 in Denver

DENVER — Game 3 of the Philadelphia Phillies-Colorado Rockies playoff on Saturday night has been postponed because of cold, snowy weather.

Major League Baseball rescheduled the game for Sunday night, and Game 4 was pushed back to Monday. Game 5, if necessary, will be played as scheduled on Tuesday in Philadelphia, without a day off for travel.

The NL division series is tied at one game each.

A cold front moved into Denver overnight, dropping temperatures into the teens with record lows for the date. Coors Field was covered with a thin layer of snow and ice Saturday morning and flurries were expected to continue through the night.
