Wednesday May 11 - CLE at WSX game - postponed - COVID - 19. UH-OH !

I just got home from a doctor's appointment and found this out. Saw -postponed- on tv and thought weather ?? Not COVID-19.

CHICAGO -- Wednesday’s series finale between the Guardians and White Sox has been postponed because of multiple positive COVID-19 tests among the Guardians’ traveling party.

The first news of the outbreak came when it was announced that manager Terry Francona tested positive and would not be able to manage Wednesday’s game. Also testing positive are bench coach DeMarlo Hale and other uniform personnel and traveling support staff. It was originally announced that Hale, the bench coach, would replace Francona to manage Wednesday’s game.

As of Tuesday morning, no Guardians players had been tested. Unless they show symptoms of COVID it’s unlikely they will be.

MLB announced the postponement this way:

“Following multiple positive COVID-19 tests within the Cleveland Guardians organization, their afternoon road game today vs. the Chicago White Sox at Guaranteed Rate Field has been postponed to allow for continued testing and contact tracing. Major League Baseball will provide a rescheduling update when it becomes available.”

Before Francona’s positive test was announced, the Guardians held a meeting about re-instituting their mask policy. It is known that a member of the traveling party was ill on Tuesday night and left the ballpark.

mjp28

........continued.......

When Francona tested positive Wednesday morning, the organization began testing the rest of the coaching staff, uniformed personnel and support staff. They informed MLB and the decision was made to postpone the game.

A date for the Wednesday’s game to be replayed has not been announced. The Guardians are off Thursday and are scheduled to open a three-game series against the Twins on Friday at Target Field. The rotation for the Twins series will be Aaron Civale, Shane Bieber and Triston McKenzie. Civale was scheduled to start Wednesday.

It’s unclear who will manage the team in Minneapolis. It almost certainly won’t be Francona, Hale or any other coach who tested positive. They will probably return to Cleveland or at the very least be kept apart from the rest of the team until they have two negative tests.

Cleveland just rebounded from a COVID outbreak that put Cal Quantrill, Owen Miller, Anthony Castro and Yu Chang on the COVID injured list. Chang is the only player who has yet to be activated. He’s rehabbing at Class AAA Columbus.

The Bally Sports Great Lakes TV crew that does Guardians’ games are just recovering from a COVID outbreak that struck during the team’s recent West Coast trip.

......STAY TUNED HERE FOR UPDATES WHEN AVAILABLE.

Why can’t we just play games and stop testing for covid?

Looks like Tito, Sandy, Sarbaugh and others will be out at least Game 1 Friday with Carl Willis as manager.

Game 30 - Friday May 13 - CLE at MIN first pitch 8:10 pm EDST.
