NEW YORK (AP) — Saturday’s game between the Toronto Blue Jays and New York Yankees was postponed because of heavy rain and the forecast of sustained inclement weather.
The postponement was announced about 3 1/2 hours before Saturday’s original first pitch and will be made up as part of a straight doubleheader on Sunday.
Max Fried was scheduled to oppose Toronto’s Kevin Gausman on Saturday and will pitch Sunday. The other original pitching matchup for Sunday was Clarke Schmidt against Toronto’s Chris Bassitt.
The Blue Jays snapped a five-game losing streak by scoring three runs in the ninth inning off struggling closer Devin Williams in Friday’s 4-2 victory.
