Red Sox-Mets game delayed due to flight issues, new start time set
Summary

The Boston Red Sox's game against the New York Mets on Apple TV+ has been delayed due to a significant flight delay from Chicago. Originally scheduled for 7:15 p.m. ET, the game will now start at 7:50 p.m. ET as the Red Sox arrived late after a 17-hour delay caused by mechanical issues with their charter flight. The game remains crucial for the Red Sox as they seek to extend their six-game winning streak, now facing a Mets team that has won four of its last five games. As both teams adjust their pregame routines for the later start, the impact on pitcher Sonny Gray and the rest of the Red Sox will be closely observed as they take the mound shortly after their late arrival.
