ÚLTIMA HORA: Los Yankees están furiosos tras la impactante decisión de la MLB que pone en riesgo la salud de los jugadores en condiciones climáticas peligrosas.

Severe weather on the East Coast has caused major disruptions to MLB games all week, and Friday’s matchup between the Toronto Blue Jays and Baltimore Orioles was even postponed just hours before the game. New York’s forecast was no better, with rain, freezing temperatures, and gusty winds expected.

Despite the conditions, the San Francisco Giants and New York Yankees decided to take the field after a 26-minute rain delay. The result was predictable: Yankees pitcher Marcus Stroman couldn’t make it out of the first inning due to knee discomfort, and by the sixth inning, manager Aaron Boone was pushing to end the game early, with his team already losing.

Boone admitted the conditions were among the worst he’d ever experienced, as he and bench coach Brad Ausmus struggled with the decision. Eventually, after Yankees pitcher Yoendrys Gomez nearly hit a batter and showed a noticeable dip in velocity, Boone, along with the trainer, convinced the umpires to call for the tarp.
