The Padres play in St. Louis today (Monday) and the National Weather Service has issued an excessive heat warning for most of Missouri, including St. Louis through the early evening. The heat index (combined heat and humidity) is supposed to get up to 105 to 110 degrees. That seems like dangerous conditions for a ball game. Has anyone ever heard of a Major League baseball game being called or postponed on account of excessive heat?

No. Generally baseball players are not p@ssies, unlike their fans.
