Dodgers Vs Phillies: Weather Threatens Tonight’s Game

The defending champions Los Angeles Dodgers have returned to Citizens Bank Park for a rematch of last season’s National League Division Series. The Phillies took the opener, winning 10‑7 on July 20, but the forecast now threatens tonight’s tilt.

Philadelphia Weather Forecast

Rain and thunderstorms are forecast to sweep through Philadelphia before midnight, with some storms carrying severe potential and heavy downpours. There’s a 100 % chance of precipitation, bringing 1–2 inches of rain to the area tonight. Even if the game proceeds, the extra moisture could affect field conditions.

Wednesday’s outlook isn’t much better for fans hoping for a doubleheader. An 80 % chance of showers and thunderstorms lingers throughout the day and evening on July 22, with totals expected between a quarter‑inch and half‑inch. That dampness could further complicate scheduling.

What Happens If the Game Is Rained Out?

If only the first contest is postponed, the schedule can shift to a day‑night doubleheader on Wednesday or move the game to Thursday, giving both clubs a shared off day. However, a total rainout of both games creates a more tangled scenario.

• Philadelphia could host a doubleheader on Thursday after both teams have rested, with the Phillies facing the New York Yankees on Friday and the Dodgers traveling to New York for a series against the New York Mets.
• MLB may reschedule the games to dates when both clubs have scheduled off days, preserving the regular‑season flow.
• Alternatively, the contests could be canceled entirely unless the results impact playoff positioning or seeding.

Ticket Policies for Weather‑Related Rainouts

The Phillies have outlined how tickets behave when games are postponed due to weather. If the canceled game is later rescheduled to an open date or part of a split doubleheader, the original ticket remains valid for that new game. Should the game not be rescheduled or be folded into a doubleheader, ticket holders can obtain an equivalent or lesser‑valued ticket for a later game up to the 60th day of the following season.
