New York Yankees vs. Miami Marlins 3/15


This will be the second split squad game of the day for the New York Yankees as the Legend Series between the Bronx Bombers and the Miami Marlins get under way down in Panama. These two games were designed to honor the great Yankee and recently retired Mariano Rivera, and no he does not plan to pitch or appear in either of these games. The Yankees have sent an A list set of names down to Panama for this historic event which will begin at 8:05 pm ET locally here in the states. I do not believe, to the best of my knowledge anyway, that this game will be televised anywhere which seems really odd. Adam Warren will be on the mound against the Marlins, enjoy this historic event.

Just as an FYI the Yankees will be playing as the home team so the designated hitter will be in effect for both games down in Panama.

  1. This is ridiculous. Why play the game if nobody in the U.S. can even watch it?

  2. I'm with Jack. They've made a big deal out of this all spring. Disappointing that nobody is carrying the coverage.
