Marlins set to return from hiatus, visit Orioles

After a weeklong interruption to their brief season, the Miami Marlins are healthy again and ready to play baseball games.

Many of the Marlins players have been quarantined in Philadelphia since the last weekend of July, when they took two of three games from the Phillies to open the season. However, a rampant outbreak of COVID-19 shut the team down and forced the infected players back to South Florida on sleeper buses.

According to MLB, Miami had 21 confirmed virus cases, with 18 of them being players. In all, 10 games have been postponed, but four of them will be made up from Tuesday to Thursday at Baltimore's Oriole Park at Camden Yards.
