Monday night’s series opener between the Kansas City Royals and host Chicago White Sox was rained out and postponed to Tuesday.
Instead, the Royals and White Sox will play a straight doubleheader beginning at 3:40 p.m. CT.
Monday’s game was scheduled to pit Royals right-hander Brady Singer (8-10, 5.34 ERA) against White Sox right-hander Dylan Cease (6-7, 4.98).
Singer will oppose Cease in Game 1 of Tuesday’s twin bill, then Royals right-hander Jordan Lyles (4-16, 6.24) will oppose White Sox right-hander Touki Toussaint (3-7, 4.71) in Game 2.
Both American League Central foes have already been eliminated from the playoff race entering their final series of the season.
