CHICAGO — The game scheduled between the Chicago White Sox and Phillies for Monday night has been postponed due to a forecast of high winds and cold temperatures, the White Sox announced on Monday.
To make up for Monday’s postponement, the Phillies and White Sox will play a doubleheader on Tuesday. The first game will start at 4:10 p.m. ET and the second game will begin 30-45 minutes after the end of the first game (but not before 7:10 p.m. ET).
The Phillies announced on Monday that right-hander Zack Wheeler will start Game 1 of the doubleheader, and left-hander Bailey Falter will start Game 2. The White Sox will start Lance Lynn in Game 1 and Lucas Giolito in Game 2. Because the Phillies would need right-hander Taijuan Walker to start Wednesday’s game in Chicago, they would either need an extra starter for Saturday’s game against the Rockies in Philadelphia, or they’d need to use an opener.
