Game 3 of the AL Championship Series between the Kansas City Royals and Baltimore Orioles was postponed Monday because of steady rain.

The game was rescheduled for Tuesday at 8:07 p.m. EDT.

The forecast for Tuesday is cold and windy but dry, with weather improving the rest of the week.

"We want a game we know we can get through nine innings, hopefully play dry baseball, not risk player safety or uncomfortable fans," Major League Baseball Senior Vice President Peter Woodfork said Monday afternoon.

Game 4 of the ALCS will be Thursday afternoon.
