Thursday's Opening Day game between the Washington Nationals and New York Mets, which was originally scheduled for 4:05 p.m. at Nationals Park, is now scheduled to start at 7:05 p.m.
First pitch has been pushed back three hours due to forecasted inclement weather. All tickets and parking passes purchased for the 4:05 p.m. start time will be honored for the 7:05 p.m. game, the Nationals say. Nats Park gates will now open at 5:30 p.m.
The first game of the 2022 regular season for both clubs, the Mets are expected to pit right-handed pitcher Tylor Megill against Nationals lefty Patrick Corbin.
