The Cardinals announced that Tuesday’s 6:45 p.m. CT game against the Atlanta Braves at Busch Stadium has been postponed due to inclement weather.

The two teams will make up the postponed game on Wednesday at 12:45 p.m. CT at Busch Stadium as part of a split doubleheader before the originally scheduled 6:15 p.m. CT game. Gates for Game 1 will open at 11:15 a.m., and gates for Game 2 will open at 4:45 p.m.

The Cardinals, winners of four straight, will start Tuesday’s scheduled starter, Kyle Gibson (5-2), in Game 1, but the club has yet to decide upon a starter for Game 2, manager Oliver Marmol said.

The Braves, who won eight of their last ten games prior to losing Monday’s Game 1 of the series, will start Reynaldo López (5-2) in Game 1. Right-hander Bryce Elder (1-2) will be called up from Triple-A Gwinnett for Game 2, manager Brian Snitker stated. The Braves made that decision even before the rainout, meaning star left-hander Chris Sale won’t start until Thursday against the White Sox in Chicago.

Both teams will be allowed to add a 27th player for the doubleheader.

Tickets for Tuesday’s game will be valid for Wednesday’s rescheduled 12:45 p.m. game. Additionally, fans who purchased tickets and were in attendance for tonight’s postponed game will be sent a ticket voucher electronically next week for a future 2024 Cardinals Monday-Thursday home game.
