It was mostly a night off for David Cone.

Cone revealed Sunday he wouldn’t be on the air for the Yankees-Red Sox “Sunday Night Baseball Game” on ESPN , saying he was “under the weather” in a post on X.

“Unfortunately, I’m under the weather and won’t be able to join Karl , Eduardo and Buster in the booth tonight. I will be watching and commenting on here during the game. I hope to be back soon,” the former Yankees pitcher wrote. Cone could not stay completely away as he called in for an inning of analysis, despite sketchy reception on his phone.

“David Cone has COVID, which is why he isn’t in the booth with Karl Ravech and Eduardo Perez tonight. He is on by phone this inning. The ESPN Sunday night trio is excellent,”Major League Baseball opts to keep the night open to allow for travel to the festivities, which are taking place this year in Arlington, Texas, from July 12-16.

The weekly Sunday night national broadcast will return the following week when the Red Sox travel to Hollywood to face the Dodgers at Dodgers Stadium. Cone joined the Sunday Night Baseball booth in 2022 and serves as an analyst on Yankees broadcasts on YES Network and hosted a podcast called “Toeing the Slab with David Cone.”The new playoffs reality means the slumping Yankees are still in a great spotHow Adrian Houser saved his season and provided a Mets bullpen solution: 'Now it’s a little bit more like Seth Lugo'
