The start of today’s Kansas City Royals vs. New York Yankees game has been delayed due to inclement weather. The first pitch was originally scheduled for 1:35 p.m. ET.

To the organization’s credit, they did their best to make fans aware of this possibility before the weather officially derailed the start.

This marks the third and final game of this series between these two American League opponents. New York picked up the victories in both games thus far by scores of 11-9 and 12-9. Cole Ragans and Ryan Weathers are the scheduled starting pitching matchup.

Looking at the odds on DraftKings Sportsbook, the Yankees hold +139 odds on the -1.5 run line, and the Royals hold +129 odds of winning outright. The run total is set at eight.

Stay tuned to DK Network for live updates on the rain delay.
