Lefty Doug Nikhazy, the 27th man for today’s doubleheader, will start the second game at 6:10 p.m. Nikhazy, who faces Walker Buehler, will be making his big league debut. The doubleheader was caused by Friday’s postponement because of rain and cold.

Cleveland Guardians fans looking for the team’s series opening game against the Boston Red Sox on television at 7 p.m. will have to cast their gaze from Guardians TV or tune in via the really old-fashioned way – the radio.
