MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred Writes Letter To Fans, Encourages Using Passion For Opening Day In Determination To Overcome Coronavirus Pandemic

It was only two weeks ago Major League Baseball moved to cancel all remaining Spring Training games and delay the start of the 2020 season until at least April 9 in response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

Plenty has changed in that short span, including Opening Day being pushed back a second time. Originally scheduled for Thursday, fans who circled March 26 on their calendar have instead been left to search for alternative means to fill the void.

MLB Network is airing games throughout the day, MLB launched an ‘#OpeningDayAtHome’ campaign, and the Los Angeles Dodgers are poised to stream their 2019 Opening Day game.
