Spring Training Arrives: Pitchers and Catchers Report

After months of drab, cold weather and a shortened 2020 season, Spring Triaing has officially opened for Major League Baseball. MLB has more details here.

Owners, execs, coaches, players, and fans are all looking forward to a full 162-game season in 2021, with fans in attendance. While details are sketchy at this time, all major league ballparks are readying for at least 20% capacity for Opening Day, which is April 1.

As the coronavirus fades and vaccinations help ease the fears going forward, there's the possibility of full stadiums by October, but more likely, 50% capacity, which, for most fans - and players - would be welcome.

More next week...
