Staten Island Yankees playoff opener postponed

The Yankees are trying to wait out tonight’s rain, but the Baby Bombers are having none of that. The Short Season Staten Island Yankees had their first round playoff opener with the Brooklyn Cyclones (Mets) postponed due to rain, and Mason Williams confirmed that the best-of-three series will just be pushed back a day. They won’t play a doubleheader or anything like that.

None of the Yankees’ five other domestic affiliates are playing anymore (the Rookie GCL Yankees won their league title, but none of the other four affiliates qualified for the postseason), so there’s no minor league action to recap tonight. For shame.
