Nats-Astros game canceled due to rain
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. -- Tonight's exhibition game between the Nationals and Astros has been canceled due to heavy rain that is not expected to let up throughout the evening, the teams announced. It will not be made up.
The Nats were hoping to get work for a number of relievers tonight, with Derek Law starting a bullpen game.
The team already is scheduled to play a split-squad, day-night doubleheader on Saturday, with Jake Irvin starting the 1:05 p.m. game against the Cardinals in Jupiter and Josiah Gray starting the 6:05 p.m. game against the Marlins in West Palm Beach. Manager Davey Martinez will hope to get all of his relievers sufficient work between those two games.
The Grapefruit League schedule wraps up Sunday afternoon when the Nationals face the Mets in Port St. Lucie.
