[Dbacks.com] Roof repairs mean fan-favorite Chase Field ritual is back for 2025 - “Obviously the opening of the roof has always been a ceremonial part of our pregame,” D-backs team president and CEO Derrick Hall said. “It’s important to be able to open it up in the summertime on a Friday night for fireworks, which we have not been able to do. We haven’t been able to make last-minute decisions about opening or closing the roof based on weather conditions, either. For so many reasons, we need it to be operational, and we just haven't been able to utilize it like we have as part of the game experience.
