After Tuesday's game between the Mets and Baltimore Orioles experienced a roughly 45-minute rain delay at the start of the game, Wednesday's game will be postponed all together due to continued rain and thunderstorms in the area.
The game will be made up as part of a split doubleheader on Thursday. Game 1 will be played at 12:05 p.m. while Game 2 is scheduled for 5:05 p.m.
Right after the postponement, manager Carlos Mendoza spoke to reporters and confirmed that LHP David Peterson, Wednesday's scheduled starter, will pitch in the first game of the doubleheader. As for the second game, it is still to be announced, but it will likely be a bullpen game which was the case even before the postponement.
Originally, Thursday's series finale was scheduled to start at 1:05 p.m. with New York traveling to Kansas City right after to begin a three-game weekend set with the Royals on Friday night which will take the Mets and the rest of the league to the All-Star break.
