Wichita Falls & Lawton, TX, September 23, 2026 —
The Boston Red Sox have announced a schedule change for their upcoming weekend series against the Chicago Cubs. The Sunday game, originally slated for that day, has been moved to Friday, April 26th, to accommodate an expected storm in the Boston area.
The decision to reschedule means that Friday will now feature a doubleheader between the two teams. The first game is scheduled to begin at 3:05 PM EDT, followed by the second game approximately 30 minutes after the conclusion of the first contest. The Saturday, April 27th game between the Red Sox and Cubs will proceed as scheduled, with a 4:10 PM EDT start time.
This adjustment aims to avoid potential weather disruptions that could impact the Sunday matchup and allow fans to enjoy the games under more favorable conditions. The exact timing and details for the Friday doubleheader will be confirmed by the team.
The Red Sox organization did not provide further details regarding the specific forecast that prompted the change, other than referencing an “expected storm.” Information regarding ticket policies for the rescheduled game was also not immediately available. Fans are advised to check the official Red Sox website or ticketing partner for the most up-to-date information on game times and policies.
