PITTSBURGH (AP) — A game between the Washington Nationals and Pittsburgh Pirates was postponed Friday because of rain in the forecast.

It will be made up as part of a split doubleheader on Saturday at 1:35 p.m. and 6:40 p.m.

The game Friday was called off about a half hour before the scheduled start. While no rain was falling, the radar showed a strong line of severe thunderstorms heading toward Pittsburgh.
