Wednesday's scheduled game between the Houston Astros and Orioles in Baltimore has been postponed due to inclement weather in the forecast.

The game is scheduled to be made up as part of a single-admission doubleheader on Thursday. The first game is scheduled to begin at 12:35 p.m. ET, with the second contest set to begin approximately 30 to 45 minutes after its completion.

Houston's Peter Lambert (1-1, 3.27 ERA) will start the first game, while fellow right-hander Lance McCullers Jr. (1-2, 6.75) will get the nod in the nightcap.

The Orioles' pitching plans for Thursday's games were not immediately known. Baltimore right-hander Chris Bassitt (1-2, 6.75) was expected to start Wednesday's game.
