Sat: Weekend Games Postponed; Red Tests Positive

The two remaining weekend games have been banged at GABP when one of the Reds (unidentified so far) tested positive for Covid 19, scrubbing tonight and tomorrow afternoon's getaway day games. The teams were informed after last night's game, with the decision to nix the contests coming today.

All isn't lost, though - both teams are off Monday, so a makeup twin bill on that day is still a possibility with a good round of test results due later today. Pittsburgh is scheduled to play at Cleveland and Cincy at KC on Tuesday, so it is a doable if tight timetable.

It is kinda ironic that a team as young as the Buccos adhered to the health protocols but still somehow have lost five games to coronavirus. Lookin' like the NHL/NBA bubble was the way to go...
