Monday’s game between the Phillies and Yankees was not supposed to happen.
There was supposed to be a Monday game between Phillies and the Yankees—last Monday, in Philadelphia. But that game never happened. None of the Phillies’ games that originally were scheduled for last week happened. The team has spent the last eight days in limbo, unsure of exactly when and where it would see the field next, after the misfortune of playing the Marlins amid an outbreak of COVID-19.
The Phillies have not had anyone on their own roster test positive for the virus.
