Indeed, that has come to pass, as at 12:58pm ET, they said that the game would begin in a rain delay.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">We\u2019ll wait this out with anyone watching\u2014or even in the stands on your phones\u2014and let you know when any updates get reported! The Yankees have an interesting lineup today with the scorching-hot Ben Rice leading off at DH despite the same-handed lefty Ragans on the bump. Manager Aaron Boone has said that he\u2019s confident in Rice against any kind of pitcher, which he\u2019s probably earned at this point. Giancarlo Stanton\u2019s 1-for-22 slump encouraged him to start both Rice and lefty-masher Paul Goldschmidt, who will man first. Also, Jazz Chisholm Jr. is getting a day off amid his awful start to 2026, with Ryan McMahon returning to the lineup at third after a couple days off and the surging Amed Rosario in Jazz\u2019s spot at second.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">We have a start time at last! We\u2019ll be getting underway at 4:20pm ET.
