Wheeler's turn in the rotation was due up Wednesday night before the steady rainfall throughout Philadelphia said otherwise.
The Phillies won the series opener Tuesday night, 2-0, behind six shutout innings from Ranger Suárez and some timely plate discipline – though with the loss of Bryce Harper, who was struck in the elbow by a Spencer Strider fastball in the first inning.
The win added on to the Phils' NL-best record at 35-19, and they'll be looking to keep their momentum going against a division rival when they pick back up on Thursday with clearer skies.
MORE: The Phillies can play small ball. They'll need to when it matters most.
