PITTSBURGH — The Pirates and Mets were supposed to celebrate Labor Day together at PNC Park on Monday, opening a three-game series in the afternoon for the enjoyment of all those with a day off work.
Now, the players get a day off work, too.
The Pirates announced about 2 1/2 hours before first pitch that the game had been postponed, canceled due to inclement weather with rain moving through the Pittsburgh area and expected to last into the afternoon.
