double-header
Back-to-back ballgames
A double-header is two games or events held consecutively, typically on the same day between the same teams: The Yankees and Red Sox play a double-header this Saturday.
Originally a baseball term, it now applies to any paired events.
In British usage, a double-header can also mean a train pulled by two locomotives.
