Phillies postponed in Chicago; doubleheader scheduled for Tuesday

The Philadelphia Phillies will have to wait to begin their next series in Chicago.

The first of a three-game interleague set against the White Sox at Guaranteed Rate Field — originally scheduled for Monday night — is postponed for wind and low temperatures, the home club announced. The two teams will now play a traditional doubleheader on Tuesday afternoon starting at 4:10 p.m. ET with the second game to start 30-45 minutes following the first.

With Zack Wheeler having been set to take the mound on Monday and Bailey Falter scheduled to pitch Tuesday, it appears those two will be in line to get the starts in the doubleheader.

The first end of the Tuesday’s doubleheader will air on NBC Sports Philadelphia on television, while the second will broadcast on NBC Sports Philadelphia+ and MLB Network. The radio broadcast for both games will air on SportsRadio 94WIP.

The final game of the series in Chicago is unaffected by Monday’s postponement, scheduled for Wednesday at 2:10 p.m. ET on NBC Sports Philadelphia and SportsRadio 94WIP.
