NEW YORK _ New York baseball fans will get a double dose of the Subway Series on Tuesday after Monday's scheduled opener was postponed due to inclement weather.
Rain storms caused the postponement of Monday's game less than an hour before scheduled first pitch. The Yankees will host the Mets in a split admission doubleheader Tuesday to make up the matchup. The first game will begin at 1:05 p.m.
Fans holding tickets for Monday's game can use them for the first game of the doubleheader, or may exchange them for a ticket to a 2019 or 2020 regular season game at Yankee Stadium. Tickets for Tuesday's game are valid only for the second game, scheduled for 7:05 p.m.
Both teams have off days scheduled for Wednesday, but off-field plans for both clubs made Tuesday the best option. Yankee Stadium is hosting a pair of high school baseball games, while the Mets have an event scheduled to benefit the Mets Foundation.
