Rainy conditions in Chicago forced Sunday’s scheduled series finale between the Toronto Blue Jays and the Cubs off the calendar, with officials announcing the game will be rescheduled.
The makeup contest is set for August 6, a date that had been a day off for both franchises.
The weekend series had its share of drama before the rainout. Chicago dominated Friday’s opener with a lopsided 16-2 victory, but the Cubs couldn’t hold on to a five-run advantage the following day, ultimately falling to Toronto 8-6 on Saturday.
With the series now complete, the Cubs head out on the road for a seven-game trip beginning Monday, starting with the first of four games against the New York Mets.
Meanwhile, the Blue Jays head home to Toronto to kick off a 10-game homestand, opening with a three-game set against the Houston Astros starting Monday.
