Overview
- The scheduled Yankees–Red Sox game was postponed on Saturday night because of a forecast for sustained rain at Yankee Stadium and will be made up as the first game (1:05 p.m.) of a split‑admission doubleheader on August 29.
- The Yankees placed the tarp before first pitch, the rain arrived later, and the club announced the official rained‑out decision shortly after 8:00 p.m.
- Fans who bought tickets for June 6 can use them only for the rescheduled 1:05 p.m. game on August 29 or exchange them online under the Yankees’ rain‑check policy, and complimentary tickets must be used for the makeup game.
- The postponement prompted immediate roster and rotation moves: Austin Wells was placed on the injured list, J.C. Escarra was recalled, Will Warren’s start was deferred, Ranger Suárez is expected to pitch Sunday, and Cam Schlittler will take the mound for New York that day.
- The delay also affects bettors because many sportsbooks void or grade wagers differently when a game is postponed or not played within their 48‑hour window, which can change the status of single bets, parlays, totals, and player props.
