The Philadelphia Phillies and Washington Nationals will play a doubleheader Tuesday -- as long as the field at Citizens Bank Park is dried out by then.
The teams saw their series opener postponed Monday night due to a soggy field that was deemed unplayable. The first game of Tuesday's doubleheader is set for a 3:05 p.m. ET start.
The damage to the infield at Citizens Bank Park happened Friday when the field was left uncovered overnight and the area got more rain than was anticipated, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer. The grounds crew worked to dry out the field Monday afternoon and even brought in blowtorches in an effort to make the field playable.
