Cubs-Guardians rained out, doubleheader set for Sunday

The Chicago Cubs-Cleveland Guardians game was postponed Saturday night due to rain, with the teams now set to play a doubleheader on Sunday.

The middle game of the weekend series between the Chicago Cubs and Cleveland Guardians was postponed on Saturday night, two hours before the scheduled first pitch, due to rain and thunderstorms expected to last for at least four hours.

The game will be made up as part of a doubleheader Sunday, with the first game beginning at 1:10 p.m. EDT. Chicago's Edward Cabera (1-0) will face Slade Cecconi (0-1) in the first game, while the nightcap features a matchup of left-handers with the Cubs' Shota Imanaga (0-1) against the Guardians' Parker Messick (1-0).
