They waited about two and a half hours after the scheduled time for Game 5 of the division series between the Guardians and Yankees in New York Monday before MLB realized weather wasn’t going to permit play. So this seems important:
No weather issues are expected for ALDS Game 5 at Yankee Stadium this afternoon. Expect sunshine with temperatures in the 50's to start, falling into the 40's as the game goes on with westerly winds. Most importantly, no chance of rain.

tomorrow will be the 1st day in MLB postseason history where 2 rounds overlap, each having a game (ALDS/NLCS)
