The spring training matchup between the Arizona Diamondbacks and the Milwaukee Brewers on Friday was canceled due to inclement weather.
Isolated thunderstorms and wind gusts up to 35 mph were expected throughout the day with a slight chance of showers on Saturday.
Arizona was planning to run out pitcher Brandon Pfaadt for his fourth game of the spring.
The D-backs were also expected to have Joc Pederson in left field. Pederson is projected to be a DH for the D-backs but is working on earning playing time on defense in the outfield.
