The New York Yankees and Cleveland Guardians are neck and neck for the ALCS spot, and the fight could be delayed a bit more.
The New York Yankees and Cleveland Guardians are neck and neck for an ALCS spot against the Houston Astros. The Yankees started with a victory in Game 1, and the Guardians tied the score in Game 2. The Guardians then defeated New York in Game 3, and New York tied the series once more in Game 4.
Monday’s Game 5 will be the final test to determine who advances in the ALCS series, and fans eager to attend may have to wait even longer due to downpours forecast for the New York metro area.
New York Metro weather tweeted: “Quick update: No major changes to the thought process regarding tonight’s forecast. All model data continues to show a series of showers and thunderstorms moving through the New York metro area between 7 and 9 p.m. The game is likely to be impacted by weather at some point tonight. »
There’s no official update on how the weather will impact the game, so it could very well start on time. However, it could also result in a delay or cancellation, which would be less than ideal.
With many underdogs advancing in this postseason, Game 5 is sure to be one of the most stressful for Yankees fans.
The Yankees could be eliminated by another postseason underdog.
This post-season was mainly marked by the outsiders. In the Wild Cards series, the Philadelphia Phillies surprised everyone by beating the St. Louis Cardinals.
The Phillies went on to beat the defending world champion Braves in the NLDS. As if that wasn’t surprising enough, the San Diego Padres eliminated the Los Angeles Dodgers, who had the best record in the league this season and one of the best records in MLB history.
The Houston Astros stayed in contention by beating the Seattle Mariners, so they’re the only favorite team to advance. The Guardians weren’t expected to beat the Yankees, but they’re closer than ever.
