White Sox, Guardians Rained Out Again Tuesday

For the second straight day, the Chicago White Sox and Cleveland Guardians were postponed by inclement weather and unplayable, cold conditions.

 

Tuesday's game was called four hours before the scheduled first pitch, with the decision coming after Guardians manager Terry Francona and White Sox manager Tony La Russa met the umpires outside at Progressive Field.

 

Snow piled up in downtown Cleveland the past two days and temperatures have been in the low 30s.

 

The game will be made up as part of a traditional doubleheader Wednesday, starting at 2:10 p.m. Monday's postponement will be played as part of a doubleheader on July 12.

 

This week's four-game series is a three-game set with two games Wednesday and one Thursday. With a dryer, warmer weather forecast, the AL Central rivals should finally meet for the first time this season.

 

The second postponement again pushed back the matchup between former Cy Young Award winners - Cleveland's Shane Bieber and Chicago's Dallas Keuchel. They'll match up in Wednesday's opener.

 

White Sox right-hander Jimmy Lambert will start the second game against Cleveland's Triston McKenzie.
