Guardians vs. Yankees ALDS Game 5 Postponed Due to Rain, Rescheduled for Tuesday

The game between the New York Yankees and Cleveland Guardians was postponed due to weather.

The decisive game of the division series will be played on Tuesday. At the stadium.

During a two hour rain delay, league officials, umpires and team representatives met multiple times, but the game was eventually postponed as the rainy weather in New York persisted into the night.

It's possible that the postponement could be a benefit for the Yankees.

Jameson Taillon was scheduled to start Monday's game even though he took the loss in Game 2 when he entered in the 10th and gave up a double, two runs and a single.

The Yankees could use three days of rest for Tuesday's game since Cleveland had little trouble with him.

He allowed two earned runs in the second game.

According to Laura Albanese of Newsday, the Cleveland Indians will wait to announce a starter until Tuesday but could give the ball to the ace.

Since both teams didn't play Monday, there will be some concern for the winner who will have to face the Astros in the ALCS the very next day.
