Yankees vs. Red Sox starts on Peacock, NBC due to weather delay
Summary

The Yankees are playing the Red Sox in a Sunday Night Baseball matchup at 7 p.m. ET on June 29, 2026. However, the game will initially air on Peacock and NBC Sports Network instead of NBC due to a delay in the Travelers Championship caused by thunderstorms. The golf tournament, which is scheduled to resume around 7:20 p.m. ET, impacted the broadcast scheduling, necessitating that viewers wait until after its conclusion to catch the Yankees-Red Sox game on NBC. MLB's fast-paced games may allow for most of the broadcast to air on the alternate platforms before transitioning to NBC.
