The Miami Marlins’ Eddy Alvarez made his MLB debut at 30 years old, and six years after earning a silver medal at the Winter Olympics in Sochi.

After missing a week of baseball due to a coronavirus outbreak, the makeshift Miami Marlins finally returned to the field and earned an emotional win.

This 2020 baseball season is wobbling, a home built on an iffy foundation, with two walls gradually closing in.

When the opponents for the Orioles (Marlins) and Yankees (Phillies) had to postpone series due to COVID-19 concerns, the two AL East rivals pivoted.

MLB suspended Marlins’ season so team could deal with coronavirus. Commissioner Rob Manfred must consider what it would take to call whole thing off.

The Marlins have shut down after 14 members of the team tested positive for COVD-19. One expert says the spread most likely “came out of Maimi.”

Giancarlo Stanton and Aaron Hicks of the Yankees took a knee during the playing of the national anthem as silent protests continued across MLB.

Players clutched a black cloth that winded from the Nationals’ first base line around to the Yankees on the third-base line.

Giancarlo Stanton hit a two-run homer in the first inning as the Yankees topped the Nationals 4-1 in a game that was called in the top of the sixth.
