PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Washington Nationals shortstop Trea Turner left Tuesday night's game against the Philadelphia Phillies in the first inning after testing positive for COVID-19. Turner, who entered batting .320 with 18 home runs and 49 RBIs, singled and scored in the first inning. The All-Star headed directly up the Nationals tunnel toward the clubhouse after scoring and was replaced by Gerardo Parra in the lineup to start the bottom of the first.
