The Oakland Athletics have been cleared to resume play this Friday against the Padres.

The Oakland Athletics underwent a bit of a scare last week when it was announced that a member of their traveling party — later confirmed to be a player — had tested positive for COVID-19.

However, exactly a week to the day since that initial announcement, the A’s are set to return to the diamond to play their first game since last Saturday when the team lost both ends of a doubleheader against the Houston Astros.
