Rain forced the WPIAL to revamp Monday’s playoff schedules for baseball and softball, moving some games to new sites and postponing others to Tuesday.

In baseball, the Class A and 4A quarterfinals will be played Monday — some at new sites — while semifinal games in all other classifications were delayed a day.

All softball games remained as scheduled Monday with two exceptions:

In Class 2A, Laurel vs. Burgettstown was moved to 2:30 p.m. Monday at West Mifflin.

In Class 4A, Montour vs. Highlands was postponed to 4 p.m. Tuesday at North Allegheny.
