Smoke Halts Game, Players Adapt | Philadelphia Phillies News
Description
Wildfire smoke from Canada is blanketing the Northeast, forcing MLB to scramble — the Phillies vs. Mets game was pushed up an hour to cut down on players breathing in smoky air, with AQI at 144 (unhealthy for all). Teams are minimizing time outside, pulling players if they show breathing trouble, and even a recently activated player missed the lineup to avoid risking his recovery. Despite the haze, officials say it’s safe to play — a repeat of 2020’s California wildfires, when games went on with ash falling.
