A three-game weekend series between the San Diego Padres and Seattle Mariners from Sept. 18-20, originally scheduled to be played at Seattle's T-Mobile Park, has been moved to Petco Park in San Diego due to poor air quality, the Padres announced Thursday.
Friday's game will begin at 6:40 p.m. PT. Saturday's contest is slated for 6:10 p.m. and Sunday's showdown is scheduled for 1:10 p.m.
The Mariners will be designated as the home team for all three games.
MLB was forced to move a two-game series between the Mariners and San Francisco Giants this week as a result of poor air conditions caused by smoke from wildfires raging along the West Coast and the Pacific Northwest.
