Rain Pushes ALCS Game 3 to Tuesday on TBS; Eliminates Off-Day

Rain in Kansas City has washed out Monday’s Game 3 of the American League Championship Series. The game will be aired Tuesday at 8 p.m. on TBS which would have been Game 4’s timeslot anyway. With the rainout, it means that the off-day that was scheduled for Thursday, will be occupied by Game 5 of the series, if necessary. Games 6 and 7 scheduled for Friday and Saturday remain in place.

We have the announcement from TBS in regards to the revised American League Championship Series schedule.
