NEW YORK (AP) --- The New York Yankees postponed Saturday's game against Tampa
Bay because of a forecast for sustained rain and will make it up as part of a
day-night doubleheader on Sept. 22.
Tickets for the postponed game can be used for the 1:05 p.m. game on Sept. 22,
which becomes the opener of a four-game series. That day's regularly scheduled
game starts at 7:05 p.m.
Both teams pushed back their scheduled starters by a day for Sunday's finale of
this weekend's truncated, two-game series. Ryan Weathers (2-2) starts for the
Yankees and Drew Rasmussen (4-1) for the Rays.
New York has lost three straight games and 10 of 14.
Tampa Bay has won five straight and 16 of 19. The Rays, a big league-best
34-15, are 4-0 against the Yankees and lead New York by 5 1/2 games in the AL
East.
