I mean, it's fair to criticize Turner, but the more important question is, why the fuck would they do a test late enough to the point where they don't get the results until the game is almost over?
Isn't the point to have them cleared before the game starts?
Sources told ESPN's Jeff Passan that in the second inning, the lab doing COVID-19 tests informed Major League Baseball that Turner's test from Monday came back inconclusive. Samples taken from Tuesday then arrived and were run, sources said, and they showed up positive. The league then immediately called the Dodgers and said to pull Turner.
The results from the first test weren't even relayed until the second inning? And if they're inconclusive, the rule should have been to pull him right then as a precaution.
