Giants-Phillies postponed, setting up doubleheader on Thursday
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — A game between the San Francisco Giants and Philadelphia Phillies was postponed Wednesday due to a forecast of inclement weather. It will be made up as part of a split doubleheader Thursday. The first game will start at 12:30 p.
m. , followed by the second game at 5:35 p. m.
The Phillies originally moved the start of Wednesday's game up 30 minutes, to 6:10 p. m. , because of the expected rain.
The Phillies (10-19) were set to play the second game under manager Don Mattingly , who took over for fired Rob Thomson on Tuesday when Philadelphia opened the three-game series with a 7-0 victory over the Giants (13-16). Philadelphia had lost 11 of 12 contests prior to Tuesday's win, including a 10-game losing streak over that stretch. ___ AP MLB: https://apnews.
