Rockies home opener canceled as MLB scraps two more regular season series due to lockout: by KyleNewmanDP
Coors Field hasn’t hosted a normal home opener since 2019. No fans were allowed at the 2020 home opener for the pandemic-shortened 60-game season, while last year, the Rockies had a capacity variance of 42.6% for their April 1 home opener.
Core economic issues continue to be at the center of the lockout negotiations between the MLB and MLBPA, including the luxury tax and major-league minimum salary. Both sides negotiated deep into the night on Tuesday trying to work out a deal to avoid the cancellation of more games.
