NEW YORK — The game between the Los Angeles Angels and New York Yankees scheduled for Tuesday night was postponed because of rain. Heavy rain and thunderstorms were projected for the New York area and earlier a flood watch was issued through Wednesday morning in New York City. The teams will attempt to open their three-game series by playing a traditional doubleheader on Wednesday starting at 4 p.m. ET. New York rookie Luis Gil was slated to start the opener against Angels rookie Davis Daniel and both will likely pitch one of the games Wednesday.
