The Cubs’ nationally televised Saturday night tilt with the Cleveland Guardians will begin in a rain delay, the team announced.
With the playing field already covered in a tarp, an initial scoreboard message warning fans of inclement weather in the area of Wrigley Field appeared roughly 90 minutes before the 6:15 p.m. scheduled first pitch. Less than 20 minutes later, it was followed by an advisory for fans to clear the seating bowl and seek shelter.
