SD-ATL rained out Monday; DH Wednesday

ATLANTA -- With heavy rain expected to pelt Truist Park most of Monday night, the Braves postponed their series opener against the Padres.

The game will be made up as part of a split doubleheader on Wednesday. The first seven-inning game will begin as scheduled at 12:20 p.m. ET and the nightcap will start at 5:20 p.m. ET.

With the postponement, the Braves and Padres pushed back their starters a day: Kyle Muller goes against Yu Darvish on Tuesday.

For the Braves, Touki Toussaint will start Wednesday’s first game and Charlie Morton will start the nightcap. San Diego's starters are TBD.

To account for the altered rotation, the Braves will likely have to recall a pitcher or go with a bullpen game in Philadelphia on Saturday.

The Braves released this information for fans with tickets on Monday:

All guests with a ticket for Monday night’s postponed game can use it for Wednesday’s 5:20 p.m. game.
