Thursday night's game between the Mets and Marlins has been postponed after two New York members tested positive for the coronavirus, MLB announced.
Friday night's opening game of the Mets-Yankees Subway Series has also been postponed. The crosstown rivals were slated to play a three-game series at Citi Field this weekend.
The league said the postponements were made "out of an abundance of caution and to allow for additional testing and contact tracing to be conducted." It is still possible the Subway Series is played this weekend, depending on the results of the contact tracing.
According to Newsday's Tim Healy, one Mets player and one staff member have tested positive for COVID-19.
