May 21 (UPI) -- The St. Louis Cardinals and Kansas City Royals will not play their scheduled game Tuesday in St. Louis due to severe weather conditions.

Major League Baseball announced that the 8:15 p.m. game has been moved to 7:45 p.m. Wednesday. Fans holding tickets for Tuesday's game can use those same tickets to attend the make-up game.

Wednesday's first game, which is a separate admission, will start as scheduled at 1:15 p.m.

Right-handed pitcher Homer Bailey was set to take the mound for the Royals on Tuesday, while the Cardinals were expected to start right-hander Michael Wacha.

Wacha and Bailey presumably will pitch in one of Wednesday's games.

The Cardinals and Royals each have lost four of their last five games entering the two-game series at Busch Stadium in St. Louis.
