WASHINGTON (AP) — The Nationals will open their season by hosting the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday after dealing with a coronavirus outbreak that involves 11 of Washington’s players. Major League Baseball postponed the opener of a three-game series between Washington and Atlanta that was supposed to start Monday at Nationals Park. Washington also had its entire season-opening three-game set against the New York Mets postponed. Four Nationals players have tested positive for COVID-19 over the past week and are isolating. Another seven are under quarantine because contact tracing determined they might have been exposed to the illness.
