Tuesday’s game between the visiting Los Angeles and New York Yankees was postponed due to a forecast of heavy rain and thunderstorms.
The teams will attempt to open their three-game series by playing a traditional doubleheader Wednesday afternoon beginning at 4:05 p.m.
The postponement was announced about three hours before the scheduled first pitch after a flood watch was issued earlier in the day for New York.
Pitching plans for the doubleheader were not yet known. New York rookie Luis Gil was slated to start the opener against Angels rookie Davis Daniel on Tuesday.
The Yankees have won seven of eight following a 10-23 slide from June 15-July 26. They took two of three at home from the Toronto Blue Jays when Aaron Judge hit MLB-best his 40th and 41st home runs in the first two games before being intentionally walked three times Sunday.
The Angels are 12-9 in their past 21 games and took two of three at home from the New York Mets this weekend.
