Reds’ game against Cubs postponed by rain

After a rain delay of four hours, 13 minutes, the Reds’ game against the Cubs on Saturday was postponed. No makeup date was announced. It’s the 10th rainout in the history of Great American Ball Park.

The Reds thought they had a window of clear weather and took the tarp off at one point and announced they would start the game at 4:35 p.m. Its original start time was 1:10 p.m. But the rain returned, and the decision was made to postpone it.

“In Cincinnati, the weather, it’s challenging to get it right,” Reds manager Bryan Price said. “I think we got it right. But it looked like the weather was going to be out of here.”

Price said the pitching rotation will remain the same and Anthony DeSclafani’s start will be pushed from Saturday to Sunday. The Reds and Cubs play at 1:10 p.m. Sunday.
