BOSTON (WHDH) - Two Red Sox players have tested positive for the coronavirus, according to team officials.

Pitchers Josh Taylor and Dawinzon Hernandez, both rookies last season, have tested positive.

Taylor is staying at a nearby hotel room while Hernandez is at home in Venezuela, officials said. Teams are only allowed to release the names of players with coronavirus if the players give their OK.

Pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez is quarantining in Florida after potentially being exposed to someone who had the virus.
