MIAMI -- Major League Baseball and the MLB Players Association on Friday announced that the two games between the Miami Marlins and Pittsburgh Pirates set for later this month in San Juan, Puerto Rico, have been relocated. They will be played at Marlins Park, with tickets going on sale at 10 a.m. ET on Saturday.
The decision to move the games from Hiram Bithorn Stadium in Puerto Rico to Miami came after players raised concerns over the Zika virus.
"The Pirates are disappointed that we will not be playing in San Juan this season. We very much looked forward to this opportunity," Pirates president Frank Coonelly said in a statement.
