DETROIT (AP) -- The Pirates-Tigers game scheduled for Saturday afternoon has been postponed because of inclement weather moving into the area. The game will be played as part of a split doubleheader on Easter Sunday.
The first game is scheduled for 1:10 p.m. EDT, with the makeup game at 6:10 p.m.
The opening day game between Detroit and Pittsburgh on Thursday also was postponed because of rain and played Friday.
