Nats-Phillies postponed due to COVID-19 outbreak

Last night's Nationals-Phillies game "was postponed" due to a COVID-19 outbreak on the Nationals. The Nationals "have 12 positive tests, four of which were players, according to manager Dave Martinez, and the team will continue to undergo rapid testing and contact tracing to determine if the outbreak is more widespread." But the Phillies and Nationals will "attempt to play a single-admission doubleheader" beginning at 12:05pm ET today, with the Phillies "honoring only tickets for Thursday’s regularly scheduled game." The Nationals are "among the teams that have reached the 85% vaccination rate" (PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER, 7/29).
