CHICAGO -- The Chicago Cubs' home opener against the Montreal Expos was snowed out Monday.
The Cubs postponed the game until Tuesday after a storm dropped several inches of snow in northern Illinois overnight. The game was rescheduled for Tuesday at 2:20 p.m. ET, and tickets from Monday's game will be good.
Tuesday had been a scheduled day off for both teams.
Zach Day (1-0) is scheduled to start for the Expos, while Matt Clement will (0-1) start for the Cubs.
The last time the Cubs postponed their home opener was in 1990, when their game against the Philadelphia Phillies was rained out. The Cubs' last snowout was April 16, 2001, also against the Phillies.
