Reds-Rockies game delayed by water main break

DENVER (AP) — The start of the game between the Colorado Rockies and Cincinnati Reds is being delayed by 30 minutes because of a water main break outside of Coors Field.

It will now begin at 8:40 p.m. ET.

The Rockies say city officials were on their way to fix the issue. There were pools of water visible on the street and sidewalk near Blake Street, which is right outside the gate of the park.

Yellow tape was put up to keep fans away from the street and police officers patrolled the area.
