Former baseball All-Star Jim Edmonds says he tested positive for the new coronavirus and for pneumonia.

“I am completely symptom free now and doing really well, and so I must have had it for a while,” Edmonds said in a video posted to his Instagram account. “I appreciate everyone who has said well wishes and wished me the best.”
