Weather forecasts calling for rain have forced the postponement of Saturday’s scheduled matchup between the New York Mets and Colorado Rockies at Citi Field.
Officials have rescheduled the contest as part of a Sunday doubleheader beginning at 1:40 p.m. ET, with fans needing only one ticket for both games. The nightcap will start roughly 30 to 45 minutes following the conclusion of the opening contest.
New York has announced its pitching rotation for the twin bill, with right-hander Kodai Senga (0-3, 8.83 ERA) taking the mound for the first matchup. Fellow righty Nolan McLean (1-1, 2.67) will handle duties for the second game.
Colorado had planned to start former Mets southpaw Jose Quintana (0-2, 6.23) in Saturday’s original contest. The Rockies organization has not yet revealed which pitchers will start in Sunday’s doubleheader.
