April 11, 201214 yr This day off between series games is just an early-season thing right? Not a fan of it In one of the games Waltz and Hutton explained it as a provision made for northern/possible winter weather games. So if the first game is cancelled because of being too cold/snowy/sleet a game can be played on the off day without doing a double header.
April 11, 201214 yr Every team gets an off day after their home opener. except us We didn't need an off day. CAUSE WE GOTS A ROOF NOW!

Actually I didn't either; I went and checked. The Mariners, Padres, Astros, Diamondbacks all had 3 consecutive days home openers. The Reds, Rockies, Phillies, Pirates had an opening day, day off and then 2 day home openers. Didn't go any farther in the checking at that point.
