Overview
- The Yankees announced late Saturday that the June 6 game was postponed because of sustained rain forecasts and will be made up as the first game (1:05 p.m.) of a split‑admission doubleheader on Saturday, Aug. 29 at Yankee Stadium.
- Paid tickets for June 6 will be valid only for the makeup game's 1:05 p.m. slot while fans may exchange tickets online under the Yankees’ rain‑check policy and gates for the doubleheader will open separately for each game.
- The tarp was put on the field about an hour before the scheduled first pitch and the game was officially rained out shortly after 8 p.m., prompting the decision to postpone rather than delay into the night.
- The postponement reshuffled the weekend pitching plans: Will Warren was removed from the Saturday spot, Ranger Suárez is expected to pitch for Boston on Sunday, and Cam Schlittler is lined up for the Yankees’ Sunday start; catcher Austin Wells was placed on the injured list and J.C. Escarra was recalled.
- Bettors should check rules with their sportsbook because treatment of postponed games varies by operator and bet type, though many books void and refund wagers if a game is not completed within a 48‑hour window.
