KANSAS CITY — With Aaron Judge resting for the first time this season, the Yankees’ season finale against the Royals on Thursday night was moving along quickly with no one scoring through five innings. Then it started raining while the Yankees mounted a sixth-inning rally and the game was stopped at 7:59 p.m., Central time.

In Wednesday night's middle game of a three-game set, the AL East-leading Yankees (40-25) are scheduled to start Clarke Schmidt (2-3, 4.04 ERA) against lefty Kris Bubic (5-3, 1.43 ERA) for the Royals (34-33), in fourth place in the AL Central.

Pablo Reyes stumbled, stopped and still scrambled home safely on a wild play in the eighth inning, taking advantage of a throwing error by reliever Lucas Erceg to give the New York Yankees a 1-0 victory over the Kansas City Royals on Thursday night.

Royals reliever Daniel Lynch IV added another fine play. He fielded a soft ground ball from LeMahieu, spun and threw to first base for the out. Lynch was attended to briefly by members of the Royals’ training staff afterward, but he remained in the game.
