The 2015 baseball season didn’t exactly kick off as planned for the Miami Marlins on Monday afternoon, as they were forced to sit through a rain delay at home. That doesn’t seem too out of the ordinary, right? After all, it rains quite a bit in Florida.
Except you might have forgotten that the Marlins’ new stadium has a retractable roof…you know, to prevent rain delays. We couldn’t blame you if you forgot, because apparently the Marlins did too:
The rain is pouring at Marlins Park. Which has a roof. Which is open.

Marlins don't have rain tarp because they didn't think they would need one with a roof, except that roof has to be closed for that to matter

Must still be Spring Training for the roof operator.
