A single breeding pair can produce about 500 mice in about 5 months under ideal conditions. In the wild, their average life span is only a few months. Baby field mice are blind, deaf and bald at birth but mature within about 3 weeks. Females are sexually mature at 4 to 6 weeks. Along with their natural habitat of the fields, they can be found in human habitation including homes and barns.
Fortunately, the Indians know that many fans enjoy entering the park several hours before first pitch, and are willing to accommodate. For a 7 p.m. game, for example, Progressive Field opens at 4:30 p.m., but be sure to line up at Gate C, as it's the only gate that opens this early.
Conditions are expected to improve as the evening progresses. The Fenway Park gates are scheduled to open at the regular time of 5:10 p.m., and the Red Sox are hopeful that tonightâs game against the New York Yankees, which is scheduled to start at 7:10 p.m., will be played. However, the Red Sox want to alert our fans to the current forecast and to the possibility of delay.
