MLB Postpones World Series Game 6 Due To Rain Forecast

Stay connected for news and updates

Rain is forecast for the St. Louis area for most of the day and evening on Wednesday, and so MLB has postponed the game:

Game 6 of #WorldSeries postponed due to inclement weather & forecast for rainfall throughout remainder of today

As expected, it will be played Thursday:

#WorldSeries Game 6 now Thurs 8:05pmET/7:05pmCT, potential Game 7 would be Fri same time, both on @MLBONFOX

It’s way too early to get any definitive answers, but as of now, I’d expect the two managers to stay with their previously scheduled starters for Game 6: Jaime Garcia for the Cardinals and Colby Lewis for the Rangers.

Over the last 30 years, World Series games postponed include Game 4 of the 2006 World Series, which was rained out — also in St. Louis. Before that, it had been ten years since a postponement, Game 1 of the 1996 World Series in New York. Other games postponed during that time are Game 3 in 1989 due to the earthquake in the Bay Area, Game 7 in 1986 and Game 6 in 1981.
