Due to rain, the Boston Red Sox’s game against the Cardinals scheduled for Saturday was postponed after a delay of over two hours. The teams will now play a day-night doubleheader on Sunday at Fenway Park, with the makeup game at 1:35 p.m. and the regularly scheduled game at 7:10 p.m. Fans with tickets for the postponed game can use them for the rescheduled contest.
Lefty Sean Newcomb is set to start Game 1 for the Red Sox, with the Game 2 starter listed as “TBD.” It is unclear what the plans are for Saturday’s scheduled starter Richard Fitts. The Red Sox have the option to call up an extra player from Triple-A for the doubleheader.
Following the doubleheader, the Red Sox will have a busy schedule ahead with 13 games in 12 days until an off day on April 17. After the Cardinals series, they will face the Blue Jays for four games at home before embarking on a six-game road trip to Chicago and Tampa. The team will need to navigate this stretch of games with a mix of strategic pitching decisions and lineup adjustments to maintain their competitiveness.
