Officials wasted little time in rescheduling the contest for Sept. 10.

"It was a smart decision with players are at risk," Detroit Manager Jim Leyland said on his team's Web site. "I think also you think of the fans when you call a game like this. No one wants to come out in this."

The teams split the first two games in the three-game series, with Toronto winning Monday's season-opener, 5-3, and Detroit winning Wednesday, 10-9.
