Following the postponement of the second game of the four-game series between the San Francisco Giants and the San Diego Padres, the third game of the series was also postponed.

Following a positive test for COVID-19 in the San Francisco Giants organization, tonights and tomorrows scheduled games between the Giants and the host San Diego Padres at Petco Park have been postponed out of an abundance of caution and to allow for additional testing and contact tracing to be conducted, MLBs statement read. Major League Baseball will continue to provide updates as necessary.

It is unclear if the series finale will be played on Sunday; however, the Giants and Padres have an off-day this coming Thursday and the two teams play the final weekend of the season from September 25-27 at Oracle Park.

After Sundays game if played, the Giants will head to Seattle to face the Mariners at T-Mobile Park on Tuesday and Wednesday before heading back to the Bay Area and face the Oakland As at the Coliseum next weekend. As for the Padres, they open a three-game series against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Monday before heading to Seattle to face the Mariners beginning on Friday night.
