Nick Senzel, Mike Moustakas win appeal, in Reds lineup tonight

Both Nick Senzel and Mike Moustakas have won their appeal to return to the field for the Cincinnati Reds. Earlier today they made their case to a panel to be re-instated after having multiple negative tests for COVID-19 after having symptoms, but no positive tests, over the weekend. Since then they have tested negative multiple times and are showing no symptoms but had not yet been approved to return to the field.

Just after 2pm ET, Nick Senzel tweeted “Back”, indicating that he had been cleared to return and had won his appeal. At 2:40pm ET, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reported that the Reds appeals were granted for both Senzel and Mike Moustakas and that both of them are back in the lineup tonight as the team prepares to on the Chicago Cubs, and hopefully end a 4-game losing streak.
