The marlins couldnt make it through one weekend of baseball before an outbreak of covid19 forced the postponement of the Miami Marlins orioles game along with the phillies yankees game. 13 members of the marlins tested positive for the coronavirus. They just played the phillies, so unclear how many philadelphia players may have the virus now. Tests pending. Miami management is going to take a lot of heat from this. They knew they had four positive tests before yesterdays game. They decided to play any way. Huge wakeup call, because this whole season is in jeopardy only days after the restart. It got the as attention before their game with the angels. Heres Chris Alvarez from the coliseum. Reporter an eerie day around oure inague baseball with thed rl. Im scared. Im goinging to honest, i really am. I go from here, home, back here every day. I wash my hands, i wash them 47 times a day to 99 times a day. I dont want to say it scared everybody, but maybe a little. And this is kind of the thing that you were hoping wasnt going to happen, that you first just from a human standpoint, but it worries you. After seeing whats going on with the marlins, thats unfortunate. But everything that weve been doing over here, weve been making sure were wearing our masks, our team is doing our part because we dont want to be one of those teams like the marlins that screws it up for everybody. Reporter the as play two more home games right here in oakland before the first road trip in seattle over the weekend. Larry, back to you. Thank you, chris. So with all that hanging over their heads, the as and angels played on. 10 in the third inning. And matt chapman, i think hes out of the slurp. A double here to center. Chappy, 3 for 4 in the game. The angels would threaten in the fourth. Albert pew rolls grounds to chapman who throws home. And then two batters later, simmons with a chopper back to the mound. Chris bassett is going home. Its the inning ending one, two, three double play. So the angels failed to score and up comes mark hanna. Oh, yes he can. A bomb to left, his first of the year. As up 30. Can he get a back flip . Oh, yeah. Trout represents the tying run. Gets him looking with high heat. Trout doesnt like it. I thought it was a high. As take three of four with a 30 win. Giants have the day off. 49 ersz welcome players back to Training Camp tomorrow, but Ritchie James recovering from a broken wrist, hes either has covid19 or been in close proximity to somebody who does have the virus. And mosstert withdrew his trade request, after the 4e eniners a 300,000 to his contract. He emerged as the best running back last season. To that other football, major league soccer. The earthquake against real salt lake. Quakes strike first in the 21st minute. Shoots and scores. Quakes up 10. 21 seconds later, out of tto douglas martinez, a little chip. And he beats the keeper. But the quakes score just a few moments ago and they lead 21 in the second half. Well have the completed highlights coming up tonight at 11 00. Back to the baseball situation. Right now, the phillies are waiting on tests from Rutgers University to find out how many positives they have. If they have a whole bunch, i dont know what baseball is going to do, because then you might have two teams that you have to shefl, put into quarantine.

This is something i have been looking forward to for eight years, and at long last we have a celebrity jeopardy and in answer to a question many of you people are probably thinking about right now, the answer is no. The celebrities have not been briefed. In fact, they do not know what the categories are, so they have not been told what subjects to study for their appearance here today. They are here, as are all of our contestants, with their intelligence, their reflexes, and their egos completely exposed [ carol wails ]. All along the line. [ audience laughs ] so for that, our thanks and our admiration. Well get into the game in just a second. The stars are playing for their favorite charities, and to add an extra element of competition, the celebrity who has the highest total for the week will have that sum matched by the jeopardy program
