The Phillies have postponed their game tonight against the Mets due to heavy rain. The game was originally scheduled for a 7:05 start, with Max Scherzer scheduled to pitch to James McCann for the first time this season.
There isn’t much opportunity to play a Saturday doubleheader with more rain in the forecast tomorrow, so the Phillies have scheduled a split-admission doubleheader on August 20th to make up for the postponement. Anyone who holds a ticket for tonight’s game will be able to attend the later game, while a separate ticket will be needed to attend the game scheduled for 1:05 PM.
