    Limping out of the clubhouse Wednesday morning, Dexter Fowler was headed straight home to recline on the couch and ice his bruised left knee.

    This unexpected day off couldn't have come at a better time for the Colorado Rockies center fielder.

    Fowler left the game Tuesday night after fouling a pitch off his kneecap. He was sore and smarting as he arrived at the ballpark. But Mother Nature did him a big favor.

    With a snow and rain mix falling in the area, the game between the New York Mets and Rockies was scrubbed. It will be made up Thursday at 3:10 p.m.

    This postponement and Oakland's washout at Texas raised the major league total this year to 21 -- matching last year's big league total.
