Cardinals-Tigers doubleheader postponed |
Major League Baseball announced today that Thursday’s scheduled doubleheader between the St. Louis Cardinals and the host Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park has been postponed. MLB and the Club believe it is prudent to continue additional testing while players and staff are quarantined before the team returns to play. More information regarding the Cardinals’ resumption of play will be announced later in the week.
The #STLCards (health permitted) are scheduled to resume play Friday for a week-long stay in Chicago for six games against the #WhiteSox and #Cubs. They will have had 15 consecutive days without playing a game. Ace Jack Flaherty will have gone three weeks since his last start. Cardinals will have to play 55 games in 44 days if they are going to fulfill 60 game schedule. That’s assuming they begin play Friday against the White Sox.
