The Chicago Cubs have changed the start time for Friday’s game against the Pittsburgh Pirates, moving it back to 8:05 p.m. (EST) because of a forecast of inclement weather throughout the morning and afternoon.

The game, the second in a four-game series between the NL Central foes, was originally scheduled to start at 2:20 p.m. at Wrigley Park.

The Pirates beat the Cubs, 4-3, on Thursday night in the first game of the series. The teams are scheduled to play at 2:20 p.m. again on Saturday and Sunday.
