Wednesday’s Pittsburgh Pirates-Cincinnati Reds game was postponed, and the teams will play a makeup game at 1:10 p.m. Monday at Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati.

The Pirates and Reds were scheduled to start at 12:35 p.m. but the game was called because of rain.

The series, which was tied at one game apiece, ends in a two-game split. The Pirates had won four consecutive series, while the Reds had lost eight straight.

Fans holding tickets for Wednesday’s Pirates-Reds game can use the same ticket for Monday’s game or exchange them for another home game, the Reds announced.
