Doubleheader is by definition two baseball games played between the same two teams on the same day in front of the same crowd. Today, a doubleheader is generally the result of a prior game between the same two teams being postponed due to inclement weather or other factors. Most often the game is rescheduled for a day on which the two teams play each other again. Often it is within the same series, but in some cases, may be weeks or months after the original date. On rare occasions, the last game between two teams in that particular city is rained out, and a doubleheader may be scheduled at the other team's home park to replace the missed game. There are two types of doubleheaders commonly used today, day-night and twi-night doubleheaders. The neologism single-game doubleheader is used for a game that lasts 18 innings or more.
