Overview
- Saturday night’s game at Yankee Stadium was postponed because of a forecast of sustained heavy rain and thunderstorms, with the decision announced by the Yankees and reported late Saturday.
- The makeup will be the first game of a split‑admission doubleheader on Sunday, July 19, with Game 1 starting at 12:35 p.m. ET and Game 2 at 7:20 p.m. ET.
- Game 1 will air on the YES Network and Game 2 will air on NBC/Peacock, and Saturday ticket holders may use their tickets for the afternoon game or exchange them under the Yankees’ rain‑check policy.
- The postponement disrupted starting plans: the Dodgers shifted Yoshinobu Yamamoto into the makeup/early game, and subsequent reports indicate the Yankees plan to start Cam Schlittler in Game 1 while other assignments remain uncertain.
- The change affects operations and player use: separate gate times and split admission will be enforced, teams can add a player for the doubleheader under roster rules, and the mutual off‑day later in the week limited other makeup options.
