Rain forces doubleheader on Tuesday

Monday night's game between the Dodgers and Mets in Citi Field has been rained out. If you live in New York like me, it's been raining since Sunday, so it's no surprise.

Both teams will play two on Tuesday, starting at 4:10 ET. The Dodgers will throw Hiroki Kuroda and Charlie Haeger, and the Mets counter with Johan Santana and Oliver Perez.

Tuesday's game was originally supposed to be a mystery as far as the starting pitcher was concerned. Since Haeger has volunteered to pitch, the next mystery will be who pitches on Wednesday. According to the Dodgers' official website, the candidates are all minor leaguers: Jesus Castillo (Double-A), Josh Towers (Triple-A), and Scott Elbert (Triple-A).
