New York Mets owner Steven Cohen has apologized to the Miami Marlins and their fans for the circumstances that led to Tuesday night's series opener between the teams getting postponed.
, one of the top pitchers in a Marlins rotation depleted by injuries, was slated to start Tuesday night but instead was pushed back to Wednesday's opener. That means if Miami wants him on the mound again for the regular-season finale Sunday in Pittsburgh, now it would need to be on short rest.Schumaker called the entire ordeal"a giant mess up" but took the high road, saying he hoped perhaps his rested players might benefit from the unexpected night off.
"The reality is, the tarp wasn't on over the weekend and this is what happens. And weather is - we couldn't play yesterday. That's just what it is. We tried, and the last thing you want to do is keep the guys here until midnight and then not play. So, I think they made the right decision of getting guys back home at a decent time and being ready to go today early."
"You try to take as much positive as you can out of it. We're lucky to be in this position. And hopefully the complaining and all that frustration is over with," he said.
