MLB: Texas Rangers confirm spate of COVID19 cases among staff
LOS ANGELES -- As Major League Baseball gears up for a coronavirus-delayed opening day in July, the Texas Rangers became the latest team to confirm several positive COVID-19 tests among their staff.
In a statement, the Rangers said they had enacted the safety protocols in place for the positive tests, including sending home employees who had contact with the infected staff and providing testing for them. "These include temperature checks upon entering the building, mandatory wearing of face coverings, and regular sanitation and cleaning of Globe Life Field."
With teams planning to conduct pre-season training at their home ballparks, Rangers players are scheduled to report on Wednesday for required COVID-19 testing with the first workout scheduled for July 3.
