After getting washed out Friday night, the Atlanta Braves and St. Louis Cardinals are again facing a delay for the start of Saturday’s doubleheader. The tarp is on the field and Game 1 will not start on time.
Today’s first pitch is delayed. Barring any further weather changes, first pitch will take place at 1:20pm.

The Braves are however hoping that situation clears quickly and are planning to start Game 1 at 1:20 p.m. ET. We will provide updates if that changes.
The tarp is off the field at Truist Park so hopefully we are in fact on track for a 1:20 p.m. start.
