A rainy night in Baltimore necessitated a postponement.

The Mets and Orioles will play a split doubleheader on Thursday, as a rainy night in Baltimore forced the second game of their three-game series to be postponed. The games will be played at 1:05 PM and 5:05 PM EDT.

Coming off a pair of series wins over the Brewers and Yankees, the Mets fell behind by four runs in the series opener against the Orioles on Tuesday night. But they came back in dramatic fashion, as Franciso Lindor and Pete Alonso hit a pair of two-run home runs to tie the game late before Juan Soto drove in the decisive run with a leadoff single in the top of the Manfred-rules tenth inning.

The Mets will have David Peterson start the first game of the doubleheader, and the second game will be a bullpen game with the starting pitcher not yet having been decided. The rotation should start to look a bit more normal starting on Friday, as Kodai Senga is set to make his return from the injured list in the team’s series opener in Kansas City.
