Waiting for Angels-Yankees Game 6: The rain -- it’s plain -- is making us insane

The Yankees are supposed to take batting practice in two hours, but a tarp is still covering the infield at Yankee Stadium. Water has puddled in several places on the white tarp although it has yet to rain hard here. There’s been an on-and-off drizzle all day -- at 3:15 p.m. Eastern time, it was on again and increasing in intensity -- although there’s been some blue sky peaking out from behind the gray.

The forecast continues to call for rain all day, turning to thunderstorms at game time. But the weathercasters -- like the umpires -- have been wrong all postseason.
