Miami, New York City, it’s already a sexy combination of cities and brands…but will an eclipse be added to the mix?
That’s right, I’m seriously cooking now.

Monday afternoon’s game between the Yankees and the Fish was originally scheduled for a start time of 2:05 p.m. ET, but due to the solar eclipse, the game was postponed to 6:05 p.m. ET.
“After reviewing the challenges of playing through Monday’s solar eclipse, including the potential for delays during the game, Major League Baseball and the Yankees have announced that the Yankees vs. Game start time has been changed from 2:05 p.m. to 6 p.m. “5 p.m.,” the Yankees said in a statement. official statement.
Pinstripes will also have a special promotion at this game, with the first 15,000 fans receiving a Yankees Eclipse T-shirt.
As a result of discussions with Major League Baseball, the scheduled start time for the Yankees vs. Marlins game at Yankee Stadium on Monday, April 8 has been changed from 2:05 p.m. to 6:05 p.m.
For customers with a valid ticket, all gates at Yankee Stadium will open from 3 p.m.

This eclipse happens at the perfect time for me personally.
At my two daughters’ homeschool, science class is held from 1:30pm to 2:30pm ET, so the fact that the eclipse occurs at this time is truly spectacular. We have a lesson plan for both today and Monday to go outside to see the eclipse (complete with eclipse glasses and all). It’s such a perfect science lesson for my daughters.
That’s quite exciting content.
