Blue Jays-Cubs has been postponed by rain

Jun 21, 2026

CHICAGO (AP) — The Toronto Blue Jays' game at the Chicago Cubs has been postponed because of inclement weather on Sunday.

Toronto and Chicago were slated to play the finale of their weekend series. Chicago routed Toronto 16-2 on Friday, and the Blue Jays rallied for an 8-6 victory on Saturday.

The game was rescheduled for Aug. 6 at Wrigley Field.

Toronto has won four of five. It begins a 10-game homestand on Monday night against Houston.

Chicago opens a seven-game trip on Monday night at the New York Mets. The Cubs finish the road trip with a weekend series at NL Central-leading Milwaukee.

Shota Imanaga will start Monday's game against the Mets, followed by Edward Cabrera on Tuesday and Javier Assad on Wednesday. Cabrera left his previous start against Colorado after 4 1/3 innings because of a cramp in his right hand.

Cubs center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong is looking to continue his hot streak on the road. Crow-Armstrong is batting .412 (40 for 97) with 10 homers and 17 RBIs in his last 23 games.
