The Mets and Tigers were rained out on Tuesday night.
The series-opening game was postponed about an hour after the scheduled start. It will be made up as part of a doubleheader on Wednesday.
New York Mets star pitchers Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer are returning to the mound in the series against one of their former teams. The 40-year-old Verlander is scheduled to make his Mets debut on Thursday against the Tigers, who drafted the right-hander No. 2 overall in 2004 and traded him to Houston in 2017. Verlander's season-opening start was delayed due to a back injury.. Scherzer, who pitched for the Tigers from 2010-14 before signing with Washington, is returning from a 10-game suspension.© 2023 The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.
