Bill Shaikin is the bearer of bad news for baseball nerds everywhere:
The Angels and New York Yankees have been rained out tonight. The teams will play Game 6 of the American League championship series tomorrow at 5:20 p.m. PDT at Yankee Stadium.
Game 7, if necessary, is scheduled for 4:57 pm. PDT at Yankee Stadium.
I bet Andy Pettitte is pleased, as the veteran will get an extra day of rest. Still, Pettitte probably won’t go more than seven innings on Sunday, giving the Angels a shot at the Yankees troubled bullpen.
Nobody likes a rainout, especially during the postseason. Well, if you’re not a fan of college football, I’m sure there’s a hockey game on tonight! Check your local listings for the times. Also, be sure to read our 2009 NHL Preview, courtesy of On Goal Analysis.
