Cardinals, Braves set for doubleheader following rainout

June 26 - A rainy Tuesday night in St. Louis gave Atlanta Braves shortstop Orlando Arcia another day to recover from overheating Monday night.

Meanwhile, the Tuesday postponement gave St. Louis Cardinals third baseman Nolan Arenado more time to treat his left forearm irritation and his right elbow contusion.

The Braves and Cardinals will return to action with a split doubleheader on Wednesday.

Atlanta manager Brian Snitker called on Zack Short to replace Arcia on Monday night, and Short would have started at shortstop on Tuesday, too.

"You have to stay locked in no matter what," Short told Bally Sports.
