To put it mildly, the 2020 MLB season has been an exercise in adaptability. Coronavirus outbreaks in the Marlins and Cardinals’ clubhouses have resulted in schedule revisions, general confusion and the publication of previews for series that never happened.
Now, though, after a lengthy will-they-or-won’t-they play period of uncertainty, the Yankees and Phillies will play a four-game, home-and-home series. The Bombers have had a strong start to the 2020 campaign, going X-Y over their first eight games, while the Phillies have managed to only play one series, going 1-2 against the Marlins.
