The Yankees have postponed Tuesday night's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Yankee Stadium due to the severe storms in the forecast.
The game will be made up Wednesday as part of a split-admission doubleheader.
Those who had tickets to Tuesday night's game can use them only for the Wednesday night game, starting at 7:05 p.m. Gates will open at 5:30 p.m., and the first 18,000 fans in attendance will receive the Aaron Judge Harry Potter Houses bobblehead doll, a promotional giveaway originally planned for Tuesday night.
Paid ticket holders to Tuesday night's game also can exchange their tickets for a similar regular-season home game, subject to availability. See more details at yankees.com/raincheck.
The start time for Wednesday afternoon's first game has been changed from 1:35 p.m. to 1:05 p.m..
