Today’s series opener against the Red Sox, originally scheduled for a 1:05 PM start, has been moved to 7:05 tonight due to an inclement weather forecast. Join us in the game thread later, as the Bombers look to prevent their rivals from clinching in Yankee Stadium. The Bombers will also try to stay ahead of the Athletics in the race for the top Wild Card berth. No matter which way you look at it, this is an important series.
The start time of today's game has been moved to 7:05 p.m. tonight due to the current forecast of inclement weather throughout the afternoon.
