The entire three-game series between the St. Louis Cardinals and the Chicago Cubs this weekend at Busch Stadium has been postponed after two more Cardinals players and a staff member tested positive for the coronavirus.
WTAX is Springfield’s radio affiliate of Cardinals baseball.
Major League Baseball made the announcement, after hours saying Friday night’s game had been scrapped to ensure everyone affected on the Cardinals was identified.
The Cardinals have been off since last Friday, when two players returned positive coronavirus tests. Eight players in total have tested positive, including star catcher Yadier Molina.
