Medicine Hat Mavericks host a doubleheader Friday, Thursday game against Cactus Rats rained out

Jun 12, 2026 | 7:35 AM

The Medicine Hat Mavericks and Energy City Cactus Rats were in the top of the second inning in a scoreless contest when their game was postponed due to rain on Thursday night.

Scheduled to play against each other again on Friday at Athletic Park, the teams will now play a doubleheader.

The first game starts Friday at 5 p.m., with the second to follow.

The Bark in the Park game is also on Friday. It allows fans to bring their dog to the ballpark by signing a waiver.

These two games are the only time the Mavs will face the team from Spruce Grove this season.

On Saturday, the Mavs start a stretch of four road games with a stop in Swift Current to take on the 57’s.

On Sunday, they head to Okotoks to take on the Dawgs.

After a day off on Monday, they play a two-game set with the Beavers in Weyburn on Tuesday and Wednesday.

The Mavs will return to Athletic Park for a home game on Thursday against the Fort McMurray Giants.

They will host the Giants on consecutive nights for the only meetings this season.
