The series opener between the Mets and the Los Angeles Dodgers at Citi Field was stopped in the top of the third inning due to rain.
After the delay lasted more than an hour, the Mets announced a 9:35 p.m. resumption time.
The Dodgers were threatening to score the game's first run when the clouds opened up and heavy rain came pouring down. The defending champions had runners on second and third with two outs. Mets starter Griffin Canning had Freddie Freeman in a 3-1 count when officials stopped play and the tarp was rolled out.
