In case hitting was not hard enough, it became an even more difficult task for batters — let alone anyone — to see anything in The Bronx on Tuesday night.

The Yankees and White Sox were set to face off at Yankee Stadium amid a literal haze.

Wildfires burning in Canada had wafted south to New York, giving the smell of a campfire and the look of clouds that had blocked out the sky.

The smoke brought the air quality index to 153, which registered as “unhealthy,” according to IQAir.
