ST. LOUIS (AP) – The scheduled game between the New York Yankees and St. Louis Cardinals was postponed because of inclement weather Friday night.
It will be made up Saturday night at 6:15 p.m. as the finale of a split doubleheader, with the first game set to begin as originally planned at 1:15 p.m.
Minus injured slugger Aaron Judge, the Yankees have won four of five and six of nine. They’ll push Friday’s scheduled starter, Luis Severino (1-2), to the first game Saturday and hell be trying for his second consecutive win. Severino led the Yankees to a 1-0 victory over Texas last weekend, giving up five hits in six innings.
The Cardinals will start Jack Flaherty in the first game and Matthew Liberatore in the nightcap. The Yankees have not announced a starter for the evening.
Saturday’s first broadcast begins at 12:20, and the second will start at 5:20. Both games can be heard on KTLO-AM.
