It’s no secret that the landscape of sports has dramatically changed since the start of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Many leagues were forced to shut down for an extended period of time earlier this spring, throwing schedules and postseason plans into peril.
While the majority of these leagues were able to complete their respective seasons, it came with a trade-off. Fans, typically a big part of sporting events, were not allowed to pack stadiums as play resumed.
For Major League Baseball, this held true until the National League Championship Series and World Series, when a limited amount of fans were able to attend games at Globe Life Field.
