Well, nothing happened last night.

The Yankees and Guardians were supposed to play Game 5 of the ALDS at Yankee Stadium. The gates opened at 5 p.m. ET for a 7:07 start time. At 6:20, the Yankees announced that the game would be delayed, and that they would “provide updates as available.”

So we waited, as the rain held off for about an hour. We waited, as fans downed Bud Light tall boys and walked the concourse, as parents bought their kids chicken tenders, ice cream and hot chocolate—anything that would keep them calm during the storm.
