When snow blanketed the Denver area on April 19, it caused the postponement of the Colorado Rockies’ scheduled opener of a three-game series with the Seattle Mariners at Coors Field.
The game was postponed and rescheduled as part of a doubleheader on April 21. With the twin bill, Colorado was afforded the ability to add another player—the 27th player—to the active roster for the pair of games.
Davis being tabbed to fill the extra spot came through a couple of interesting roster moves. He was on the Rockies’ active roster just one day earlier to take the place of an injured Kyle Freeland, but was then optioned to Albuquerque following Saturday’s contest.
