April 11: Chicago Cubs: SNOW OUT-GAME POSPONED
By Chris Price
The final game in this three game series against the Chicago Cubs was posponed due to snow.
Weather forcasters predict mow and the potential for more inclement weather through Thursday.
The Cubs, who lost the first two games of the series against the Astros, made the call to postpone the scheduled afternoon contest at about 9:30 a.m.
According to a press release sent out to the media, the game will be rescheduled for 7:05 p.m. on July 12.
This will take away the extra All-Star break day each teams had. Instead of having four days off for the All-Star break, both clubs now have three, like most other clubs.
