doubleheader

doubleheader
    n 1: two games instead of one (especially in baseball when the
         same two teams play two games on the same day) [syn: {twin
         bill}, {doubleheader}, {double feature}]
    

doubleheader \doubleheader\ n.
   two events, usually entertainment or sports performances,
   occurring immediately in succession or within a short time of
   each other; especially, two sports games played by the same
   teams on the same day, one right after another.

   Note: A doubleheader in baseball is often scheduled between
         teams when a previously shceduled game is postponed, as
         due to rain or other interfering factors. In such
         cases, the admission price for the doubleheader remains
         that of a single game, though two games are played.

   Syn: twin bill, double feature.
