The game, originally set to take place on April 7, will now be made up as part of a split doubleheader on Friday, August 9.

The decision to postpone the game was made in light of adverse weather conditions, ensuring the safety of the players and spectators. The rescheduled game will now start at 1:10 p.m. CT/12:10 ET, preceding the evening's previously scheduled game at 7:10 p.m.

Both teams, taking advantage of the postponement, are utilizing the opportunity to provide extra rest to their starting rotations. The Twins' Bailey Ober and the Guardians' Triston McKenzie, who were originally designated as Sunday's starters, will now make their appearances on Monday as the rotations are pushed back by a day.

For the Guardians, the delay in finding a replacement for the injured Shane Bieber in the rotation slot is granted through the game's postponement, allowing Logan Allen and Tanner Bibee to follow in order.

Similarly, the Twins will maintain their order and will be hoping that the delay will provide time for their struggling offense to regroup and find its footing ahead of the rescheduled game in August.

Fans who were initially holding tickets for the Sunday, April 7 game will not need to take any further action as they will be able to utilize their tickets for admission into the rescheduled game on Friday, August 9.
