Major League Baseball is opening an investigation into some of the events following last night’s decisive game 6 of the World Series.
In true 2020 form, the Dodgers defeated the Rays 3-1 to win the series, but star player Justin Turner was pulled from the game in the eighth inning after testing positive for COVID-19.
Surprisingly, Turner was back on the field celebrating with his teammates after the game:
