Mets-Pirates rained out, DH Saturday

NEW YORK — A game scheduled for Thursday night between the New York Mets and Pittsburgh Pirates was postponed due to rain and will be made up as part of a doubleheader Saturday.

The teams will play a single-admission twinbill beginning at 4:10 p.m. Saturday, trying to make up the game during Pittsburgh’s only scheduled visit to the Big Apple this season.

Friday night’s game could also be at risk as Tropical Storm Elsa makes its way up the East Coast.

It’s the second rainout this week for the Mets. New York has four more doubleheaders scheduled this season beginning Saturday.
