Memorial Day signifies the unofficial start to summer in the United States.
It's also a big benchmark on the sports calendar.
The 2020 MLB season should have been in full swing, ready to turn the page on its second month. Monday would have been filled with pageantry at the ballparks around the country as teams honored our military servicepeople and veterans.
The NBA and NHL playoffs, likely without all three Northern California teams, should have been in the conference finals stage.
Instead, this was a very different Memorial Day due to the global coronavirus pandemic.
