To make up for the postponement, the game has been rescheduled as part of a traditional doubleheader on Wednesday. The first game is slated to begin at 4:05 p.m., giving fans a full day of baseball action.

The Yankees are riding high on recent successes, having won seven of their last eight games. This stretch of victories includes their first home series win since early June, breaking a disappointing 0-6-1 streak in their previous seven home series. The team’s renewed vigor has fans hopeful for a strong finish to the season.

Sunday’s game at Yankee Stadium, despite its own lengthy rain delay, was a highlight for the Yankees. DJ LeMahieu emerged as the hero, singling home the game-winning run in the 10th inning to secure a 4-3 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays. This clutch performance not only ended the series on a high note but also set a positive tone heading into the postponed Angels series.

As the Yankees prepare for the doubleheader, all eyes will be on their lineup and pitching staff. The team has been showing impressive form, and fans are eager to see if they can maintain their momentum. The doubleheader presents a unique challenge, requiring depth and stamina from both the pitchers and hitters.

Wednesday’s doubleheader will be a crucial test for the Yankees, providing an opportunity to solidify their standings and continue their winning streak. Fans are encouraged to show up in full force, ready to cheer their team through both games.
