For the second time this week, the Chicago White Sox have been forced to postpone a game due to rain.
The team announced Wednesday's game against the Detroit Tigers won't be played at 1:10 p.m. as originally scheduled because of inclement weather.
The game will be made up on Friday, May 26 as part of a straight doubleheader, beginning at 4:10 p.m., according to the announcement. The originally scheduled game for May 23 will begin at 7:10 p.m., or 30 minutes following the conclusion of the rescheduled game. [[418347873, C]]
Rain is expected to continue across the Chicago area throughout the day, mixed with gusty winds and chilly temperatures.
Tickets for Wednesday's postponed game are now a gift certificate, the team said, and fans should exchange those game tickets and parking coupons for tickets of equal or lesser value to any future regular-season White Sox home game.
All exchanges must be done at the Guaranteed Rate Field box office.
On Monday, the White Sox's home opener was called before a single pitch because of heavy rain. It was originally delayed, but eventually rescheduled until Tuesday.
