Boone said the decision to postpone Wednesday “no doubt” factored in fans, particularly older ones. Players did not publicly complain about the conditions Tuesday, when the smoke was evident, but to a lesser degree. It is MLB (in consultation with the Players Association) - and not the Yankees - that has the authority to postpone games due to air quality. The Yankees played through the smoky clouds on Tuesday night, even as their Triple-A affiliate in Moosic, Pa., and the Mets’ in Syracuse canceled home games. “You see some fly balls go up, and I couldn’t even see them off the bat until they started coming down. “I remember was pretty hazy out,” Rodon said.

MLB talked with several clubs affected by the air quality about three hours before the Yankees’ game time and decided against hosting an outdoor game as the city urged people to stay indoors. There was an orange tint to the sky in The Bronx, which might as well have been Mars. In a scene reminiscent of “Blade Runner,” clouds of smoke that had wafted south from Canadian wildfires left New York in a literal haze.
