CHICAGO (AP) — The Miami Marlins’ game at the Chicago Cubs was postponed because of rain in the forecast for Thursday night.
It will be made up as part of a split-doubleheader on Saturday at Wrigley Field.
Chicago was back at home after a 5-4 trip that included stops at San Diego, Seattle and Arizona. Cody Bellinger homered to lead the Cubs to a 5-3 victory over the Diamondbacks on Wednesday in the rubber game of the three-game set.
“Definitely a trip that had a little bit of everything,” Cubs second baseman Nico Hoerner said before the game was postponed. “Different kinds of games, some crazy games for sure. A lot of good experiences for our group.”
Miami is looking to dig out of a 4-15 start. It dropped two of three against San Francisco in its previous series.
Chicago right-hander Jameson Taillon and Miami left-hander A.J. Puk were each pushed back one day to Friday.
