Dunkin Donuts Park will not be ready for May 31 opener

The deadline for "substantial completion" for the Hartford Yard Goats new stadium has come and gone, and now the date of the home opener is in question.

There is no end in sight for the Hartford Yard Goats' impossibly long road trip

City of Hartford officials announced Tuesday that construction on Dunkin Donuts Park had not satisfactorily proceeded past the point of "substantial completion," meaning the stadium is not ready to hand over to the owners. Tuesday's announcement means that the Rockies' Double-A affiliate will likely not be able to play in their long awaited home opener on Monday, May 31 as planned.
