Nobody is allowed into the ballparks without a negative Covid-19 test result, so if the protocol is strictly followed, ballplayers can't transmit it to other ballplayers unless one can be contagious while testing negative (this is where the dearth of information on the specifics enters into the equation). I assume the positive cases were contracted elsewhere.
