Yankees-Orioles Series Gets Major Schedule Change

On Thursday, Yankees manager Aaron Boone said discussions are being had about possibly having a doubleheader on Friday in anticipation of inclement weather.

The Athletic’s Brendan Kuty wrote on X: Boone says that with the nor’easter coming, there have been “talks” about a potential doubleheader tomorrow and no game Saturday. No decision yet, but there has been discussion.

MLB.com’s Bryan Hoch wrote on X: There are discussions underway about a possible Yankees/Orioles doubleheader Friday, Aaron Boone said. Forecast is not good for Saturday and Sunday.

Later on Thursday, the Yankees officially announced there will be a doubleheader on Friday.

The Yankees wrote on X: Saturday’s Yankees-Orioles game (Saturday, September 26) has been rescheduled due to the forecast of sustained inclement weather and will be made up tomorrow, Friday, September 25, as the first game of a single-admission doubleheader, which will begin at 4:05 p.m.
