NEW YORK -- Game 3 of the ALCS began under a clear, azure, late-afternoon sky on Tuesday in the Bronx. It ended under a clear, darkened sky on a crisp evening with a mostly full moon shining high above Yankee Stadium.
But the weatherman has bad news, and Wednesday's Game 4 looks likely to be played either in very different conditions or not at all. If it's the latter, who benefits more: the Houston Astros and their power-trio rotation or the New York Yankees and their deep but heavily used bullpen?
Neither side offered much in terms of concrete plans should Game 4 get bagged, a decision that is likely to be made early Wednesday unless the forecast improves markedly.
