Guardians, Yankees rained out

Sunny 95

NEW YORK – Shane Bieber and the Cleveland Guardians try to bounce back in the Bronx, hoping to avoid a wipeout at Yankee Stadium a day after a washout.

Game 2 of the Cleveland-New York matchup in the AL Division Series was postponed Thursday night because of a rainy forecast and will be played Friday afternoon.

Aaron Judge and the Yankees lead 1-0 in the best-of-five series.

The rainout followed an unusual scheduled off day between Games 1 and 2, so the teams could end up playing four days in a row.

Game 3 and a potential Game 4 are scheduled in Cleveland this weekend.

If Game 5 is needed, it would be held at Yankee Stadium on Monday night.
