It has been well over two months since Major League Baseball temporarily suspended operations amid concerns related to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
At the start of the shutdown, players were thrust into a state of uncertainty. Just three weeks shy of what would have been Opening Day, most returned to their offseason homes after Spring Training camps were closed in accordance with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommending against large gatherings.
As a result, players have taken it upon themselves to continue individual workouts. For some, it hasn’t been smooth sailing due to a lack of necessary equipment.
