We have two of our southern teams playing each other this week while our Renegades are back at home. The Yankees take a trip to Toronto to play the Blue Jays in a series that started yesterday evening. Humidity this week will be calmer as we see pretty clear skies to start the week. Let’s jump into the details!
New York Yankees
The Yankees play against the Blue Jays in Toronto to continue their series tonight at 7:07pm EDT. It will be a clear evening with temperatures in the low-70s and humidity at around 55%. It will be quite the calm evening with calm surface winds and winds at around 10 mph at 150ft. Winds will be pointing towards left field with rising air that will be beneficial to hitters. Overall, the perfect night for baseball and I am quite jealous of any spectators at this wonderful game!
The Yankees conclude their away series against the Blue Jays at 7:07pm EDT. Wednesday continues the temperatures in the low-70s. Humidity will be more than Tuesday at around 70%. It will be a mostly cloudy evening with calm surface winds. At 150ft, winds will be around 11 mph pointing towards left field. Air motion will be naturally rising, so that alongside the winds will be helpful for batters to get a couple extra inches on the ball. The higher humidity also helps the ball naturally rise more. Another great night to close out this series!
Biloxi Shuckers
The Shuckers take on our very own Rocket City Trash Pandas at home this week starting tonight at 6:35pm CDT. Temperatures will be in the upper-80s with humidity around 70%. It will be a partly cloud evening with calm surface winds. Winds at 150ft will be pointing towards left field at around 15 mph. The stronger winds might just help move some fly balls towards left field. It will be a hot evening so be prepared and hydrate before and during the game!
The Shuckers continue their home series against the Trash Pandas on Wednesday at 6:35pm CDT. It will be a partly cloudy evening with the slight chance of a scattered thunderstorm in the region. Temperatures will be in the mid-80s with humidity at around 75-85%. Surface winds will be calm while at 150ft, they will be around 9 mph pointing towards right field. Air motion will be naturally rising which will help with fly balls staying in the air longer. Be sure to keep a lookout for those scattered showers as we get closer to game time!
Thursday night’s home game against the Trash Pandas will take place at 6:35pm CDT. It will be a mostly cloudy evening with a chance of a scattered thunderstorm in the region for the first few innings. The chance of rain seems quite low but it could happen earlier in the day and leave the field a bit damp which will affect game play. Temperatures will be in the low-80s with humidity around 75-80%. Surface winds will be calm while up at 150ft, they will be around 7 mph pointing towards the infield. It will be a fairly warm and sticky evening but it should be fairly clear for some good baseball!
Birmingham Barons
The Barons start a home series at 7pm CDT tonight against the Montgomery Biscuits. It will be a partly cloudy evening with a slight chance of a scattered shower in the first few innings. Temperatures will be in the upper-80s with humidity around 55%.

It will be a warm evening that may see some drizzle in the beginning of the game but overall, not much to worry about!
The Barons continue their home series against the Biscuits on Wednesday night at 7pm CDT. Temperatures will be in the mid to upper-80s with partly cloudy skies. There is a chance for a scattered thunderstorm in the first half of the game but nothing is super likely right now. Humidity will be increasing throughout the game from 59% to 71%. Surface winds will be calm while up at 150ft, they will be around 7 mph pointing towards the infield. Air motion will be sinking and with the winds pointing infield, that will not be super helpful to the batters this evening. A pretty warm night for players a spectators alike and be on the lookout for those scattered showers as we get closer to game time!
The Barons continue their home series against the Biscuits at 7pm CDT on Thursday. Temperatures will be in the low-90s to upper-80s. Humidity will be around 40-50% with calm surface winds. Winds at 150ft will be pointing towards the infield at around 8 mph. It will be a party cloudy night which means the sun will be causing a glare to the outfielders for the first few innings. Overall a hit night but not super sticky which will be a nice change of pace!
Hudson Valley Renegades
The Renegades start a home series this week against the Rome Emperors starting with a game tonight at 6:35pm EDT. It will be a lovely and clear evening with temperatures in the mid-70s and humidity at around 40%. Surface winds will be calm and winds at 150ft will be around 6 mph pointing towards the infield. Air motion will be naturally sinking as we won’t have much moisture in the air. That will make it quite nice for spectators but not necessarily the best for fly balls.

Temperatures will be continuing to rise into the mid-80s throughout the game as we head into the hottest part of the day. Humidity will be around 40% with clear skies which means the sun will be right overhead of everyone. Winds will be around 6 mph at 150ft and calm at the surface.

The rising air and strong winds will defiantly help out some batters this evening and we may see a few home runs this evening with a little extra help from the weather!
