This sunday, the Yankees confirmed at 5:14 p.m. that they intended to open the gates at 5:30 p.m. Such announcements usually signal bad weather, hinting at potential delays or even postponements. But the forecast indeed looks concerning. Scattered thunderstorms are expected to hit the Bronx around 7:00 p.m., coinciding with the scheduled first pitch at 7:05 p.m., according to Weather.com.
The silver lining is that the bad weather isn’t expected to last all night. Once the initial storms pass, the rest of the evening is forecasted to be mostly cloudy with a minimal chance of further precipitation. This offers hope that the game can proceed after the initial delay.
Fans are advised to stay tuned for updates, as the Yankees will continue to monitor the weather and provide information as it becomes available.
