Get ready for baseball!
The Yankees will kick off the 2023 season with favorable weather conditions, despite the brisk temperatures expected in the Bronx.
On Thursday, the weather is set to cooperate as the Yankees face the San Francisco Giants for their Opening Day at Yankee Stadium. The game is slated to begin at 1:05 p.m. Eastern time, with the main weather concern being the chilly winds.
Thursday’s forecast:
Sunny skies with temperatures reaching around 46 degrees. Wind chills will range from 20 to 30 early in the day, with northwest winds blowing at 13 to 15 mph.
This game will also mark the MLB debut of Anthony Volpe, the 21-year-old shortstop from New Jersey who earned his spot with an impressive spring training. Fans interested in attending can purchase tickets through Stubhub, Vivid Seats, Ticketsmarter, or Ticketmaster.
