 More Cubs NewsThe Cubs and Houston Astros game Wednesday was postponed because of snow, and no makeup date has been set. The field was covered by snow early Wednesday morning, and the forecast for the Chicago area called for more precipitation. The Cubs and Astros are next scheduled to play in Chicago July 13-15, which is after the All-Star break. Both teams have July 12 off, which is a possible makeup date. The teams were waiting for Major League Baseball to approve a makeup date and time. Thursday was already an off-day on the Cubs schedule. "An off-day isn't bad, coming off a long Spring Training and a road trip, it's not bad to have one off-day to organize yourself a little, acclimate yourself, and relax a little bit," Cubs manager Lou Piniella said. "Two? Nothing you can do about it. Especially when you're smarting from a couple of losses. You enjoy your off-days a little more coming off of wins, you know? But there's nothing you can do about it, we'll be ready to play on Friday." |
