Another unfavorable weather forecast of severe thunderstorms that are set to hit the Fox Valley area has forced the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers to postpone Tuesday night’s game with the Peoria Chiefs at Neuroscience Group Field.  The teams will now open their Midwest League series on Wednesday afternoon as part of a doubleheader.  Game one is scheduled to begin at 12:10pm.

A minor league doubleheader consists of two seven-inning games.  The first game will be played to its conclusion.  There will be a minimum break of 30 minutes from the end of game one to the start of the nightcap.

On Wednesday, baseball celebrates Jackie Robinson Day on the 79th anniversary of Robinson breaking baseball’s color barrier.
