Phillies test negative again, return to action tonight

The Philadelphia Phillies learned this morning that their latest round of COVID-19 tests came back negative, and as a result, are heading out to New York to play the Yankees this evening.

This will be the Phillies’ first action since last Wednesday, when they played a Miami Marlins team that we now know had over a dozen infected players, plus several infected staffers. Out of abundance of caution, the Phillies postponed their games slated for Monday through Thursday against the Baltimore Orioles, and then, after three rapid result tests brought back positives, they postponed their weekend series, as well.
