Denver Post Thinks Coors Field is Citizens Bank Park
Published:
Picture this: You work for Denver’s largest newspaper and you need a beautiful picture of Coors Field for your big visitors guide to the stadium.
You find a picture of a beautiful baseball stadium on a sunny day, except…
Um, that photo isn’t of Coors Field. It’s Citizens Bank Park in Philly. Come on, @denverpost! pic.twitter.com/BEBouNNrA4

…it’s Citizens Bank Park. In Philadelphia. 1,730 miles east of Denver, Colorado. Yikes.
I think the Denver Post staff doesn’t know anything about baseball:
This is sad. The Post apologized for the mishap and tweeted out a picture of Coors Field. Like that does the trick. This is a paper that has had multiple rounds of buyouts and layoffs in recent years.
Due to a production error, an image of Citizens Bank Park ran in place of Coors Field on the cover of today's Life & Culture section. Please enjoy this beautiful image of Coors Field photographed yesterday. The Denver Post sincerely regrets the error. pic.twitter.com/0bwW2snOLb

The Phillies had fun with it, as they should have.
Hey, it’s something to take our minds off of Gabe Kapler and his early start in Philly!
