Nats, Cards Rained Out Tuesday, DH Scheduled for Friday

SPRINGFIELD, MISSOURI -- The Northwest Arkansas Naturals (23-22) and Springfield Cardinals (24-21) contest scheduled for Tuesday, May 27, at 7:05 PM CT at Hammons Field in Springfield, Missouri, has been postponed due to field conditions and rain. The two teams will make up the contest as part of a doubleheader on Friday, May 30, with the first pitch of the first game scheduled for 5:05 PM CT. Both games will be seven innings in length.

The Naturals and Cardinals were scheduled to begin a six-game series at Hammons Field, Northwest Arkansas' second trip to Springfield this season. NWA had won the last series at Hammons Field, four games to two, and included a rainout that was made up as part of a doubleheader during that trip.

Wednesday's game will serve as the series opener with a 7:05 PM CT first pitch scheduled in Springfield.
