While there haven’t been as many sports postponements and cancellations over COVID-19 in 2021 as there were in 2020, there have still been a fair bit of events altered by the pandemic. The latest is Wednesday night’s Washington Nationals-Philadelphia Phillies game, which Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic and Jeff Passan of ESPN both reported has been postponed due to COVID-19 tests with Washington (including star shortstop Trea Turner, who was pulled mid-game from the teams’ game Tuesday after testing positive).

Roughly two weeks after the New York Yankees had six players test positive for COVID-19, the Washington Nationals are dealing with an outbreak.
After Washington abruptly pulled All-Star shortstop Trea Turner from Tuesday s game versus the Philadelphia Phillies because it was learned he tested positive for COVID-19, ESPN s Jeff Passan and others confirmed Wednesday s showdown between the division rivals was scrapped because of a virus outbreak within the Nationals. Wednesday s scheduled game between the host Philadelphia Phillies and the Washington Nationals at Citizens Bank Park has been postponed to allow for continued testing and contact tracing involving members of the Nationals organization, MLB said in a released statement.
