Baseball is BACK in the DMV tomorrow, but 5 Washington Nationals players will not be on the field against the Miami Marlins due to COVID-19 exposure.
Mike Rizzo, Nationals general manager, made the announcement that one player has tested positive for COVID-19, so he will therefore miss Opening Day. But he's not the only one will not be in uniform tomorrow. 4 other players were identified as having close enough contact with him, that they must quarantine as a preventative measure.

The identity of the players have not been revealed.
