Wednesday night’s contest between the Chicago Cubs and host St. Louis Cardinals was postponed due to inclement weather.

The teams will make up the contest Thursday when they play a day-night doubleheader.

Thursday’s first game will start at 1:15 p.m. ET (12:15 p.m. CT) and the originally scheduled contest is slated for 7:45 p.m. ET (6:45 CT).

It wasn’t immediately known how the postponement would affect the pitching matchups.
