The New York Yankees and Kansas City Royals are slated to complete their series on Sunday.
The weather may have other plans though as storms move through New York City.
It's not a guarantee that the game doesn't start at its scheduled 1:35 p.m., but the Yanks were already warning fans well ahead of time.
They wrote on social media on Sunday morning:
"As of 10:25 a.m., please be advised we do not anticipate starting today's game on time due to the current forecast of inclement weather. We will provide an update as more information is received."
There had been no further update by 12:45 p.m.
