After opening the season with a series win against the defending champs, the Yankees were scheduled to waste no time in getting back at it tonight versus the Phillies. However, news broke this morning that seven more Marlins players tested positive for coronavirus. The Marlins home opener versus the Orioles was postponed, and with the Phillies and Marlins having clashed yesterday, tonight’s Yankees-Phillies game has been postponed as well.
As crazy as it seems, MLB has not announced any plans to postpone or cancel any other games. Far as we know, the league will attempt to roll forward with this series if the Phillies’ coronavirus tests come back negative.
