One possibility for how Major League Baseball could hold the 2020 season has picked up a key endorsement.

Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey said he supports the idea of all teams playing in Arizona and is in talks with MLB to get it off the ground when the time is right.

"I have had discussions with the commissioner of Major League Baseball," Ducey said, per Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic. "While I want to hold the content of those discussions in confidence, I just want everyone to know that Arizona, at the right time, is very open-minded to hosting whatever Major League Baseball would like from the state, at the time that it would be appropriate for public health if Arizona were in a position to reopen.
