With the Yankees and Guardians set to play a win-or-go-home Game 5 at Yankee Stadium, rain over New York has delayed first pitch. Monday night’s game was officially delayed due to the weather, and now both teams are slated to meet with the umpiring crew and league officials sometime after 8:15 p.m. ET to discuss options, according to ESPN’s Marly Rivera.
New York was able to force Game 5 after beating Cleveland, 4–2, in Game 4 on Sunday night in Cleveland. The Yankees jumped out to a 3–0 lead through the first two innings, which was all the run support Gerrit Cole and the New York bullpen needed.
