Mets-Braves Game Postponed Amid Forecast of Heavy Rain, Will Play Doubleheader Wednesday
Heavy rain forced the postponement, and Tuesday ticket holders can use their seats for Wednesday night or exchange them for a voucher.
On Tuesday, the New York Mets postponed their game against the Atlanta Braves due to thunderstorms, rescheduling the contest as a split-admission doubleheader at Citi Field on Wednesday.
Seeking a third consecutive win, the Mets secured a 14-3 victory on Monday, with Francisco Lindor hitting two home runs and a triple while collecting six RBIs.
Entering the week, the Mets held a 45-62 record, while the Braves lead the division with a 62-44 mark; the team is 5-3 against East rivals this season.
Fans holding tickets for Tuesday's postponed game may use them for the rescheduled night game at Citi Field on Wednesday, or receive a digital voucher for comparable future games.
Pitching matchups for Wednesday's doubleheader remain unannounced, though the Mets were originally slated to start Christian Scott against All-Star Braves left-hander Chris Sale on Tuesday, with Sean Manaea and Grant Holmes listed for the following day.
