CINCINNATI — Reds players and staff were tested for COVID-19 again as Major League Baseball tried to determine if more than one Cincinnati player has been exposed to the coronavirus. 

The last two games of a series between the Reds and Pirates were postponed Saturday after the player tested positive. 

The Pirates worked out Sunday at Great American Ball Park and returned to Pittsburgh, where they will start a three-game series against the Cleveland Indians on Tuesday. 

The Reds expected to get results of their latest tests on Monday, when a decision will be made whether they can travel to Kansas City for a series that's scheduled to begin Tuesday night.
