Another Cardinals series was postponed due to coronavirus outbreak

The St. Louis Cardinals’ return to action was pushed back again.

The Cardinals’ three-game series against the Pittsburgh Pirates that was scheduled to begin on Monday night in St. Louis was postponed on Sunday, the league announced.

“In light of the most recent positive test results, MLB and the Club believe it is prudent to conduct additional testing while players and staff are quarantined before the team returns to play,” MLB said in a statement. “More information regarding the Cardinals’ resumption of play will be announced later in the week.”

ESPN’s Jeff Passan indicated the Pirates were already aware of Monday’s game being postponed on Saturday.
