The Miami Marlins' coronavirus outbreak could endanger the Major League Baseball season, Dr. Anthony Fauci said Tuesday, although he doesn't believe games need to stop now.
More than a dozen Marlins players and staff members tested positive for COVID-19, and four games have been postponed, raising anew questions about MLB's attempts to conduct a season.
Miami played at Philadelphia last weekend. The Yankees are scheduled to host the Phillies on Wednesday and Thursday. The Orioles, who made a trip to Miami without playing a game, are scheduled to host the Marlins in a two-game series starting Wednesday. "I'm going to be honest with you: I'm scared," Martinez said. "My level of concern went from about an eight to a 12. I mean this thing really hits home now. ... I got guys in our clubhouse that are really concerned, as well."
