At this point, why? Yesterday was the day to make the biggest impact. Today it feels like they are saying "crap, probably shouldn't have played yesterday."

Edit: I do admire their decision in the big picture and what they are deciding on is more than a single day issue I just question the timing and feel the same about every other MLB game being postponed today.

Yup - Doders-Giants are playing. Brewers-Reds are playing.

Stupid to NOT play today.

Both are doing double-headers

The D-backs (and Rockies) chose to play yesterday, while most of pro sports
did not. I wonder who on the D-backs made the decision to stand out like a
sore thumb. Doing so today is anticlimactic. A day late and a dollar short.

I turned off the game when I realized that our team was one of the few not
showing support for the Black Lives Matter movement.

It was painful to hear Steve and BB have to call the game under those circumstances.

To their credit they are making a donation to a social issues organization so while maybe a day late they are not a dollar short. More is needed but their steps are in the right direction
