Two points of view emerged from the 2020 baseball season.
One side saw Major League Baseball's championship series in late October as a massive success. The abbreviated season crowned a World Series champion on neutral ground, and the Los Angeles Dodgers fulfilled a preseason destiny from before the COVID-19 outbreak by hoisting the Commissioner's Trophy. The weird, winding road was replete with an extended postseason and a 60-game regular season sprint, but the postseason still celebrated the game.
The other side froze baseball in stasis. Sure, MLB crowned a champion, but the season ended for all intents and purposes when the global pandemic postponed everything in spring training.
