The scheduling masters at MLB decided that — weather permitting — the American League teams would play every other day in the Division Series. That means a day off yesterday, and a day off tomorrow. In other words, a Friday evening with no other sports and the Yankees won’t be playing in primetime. Bonkers.
Anyway, the weather could correct MLB’s mistake by forcing today’s game to be postponed until tomorrow.
