Leagues across the country are fighting to engage fans as best they can during this country-wide shutdown and not long after the NBA announced a streamed game of HORSE among current and former players, the MLB announced a one-month long online season of the popular video game, MLB the Show. The format includes a player from each team competing and the Texas Rangers are being represented by franchise star, Joey Gallo.
The plan is for the online league to have players representing each team square off against each other in a regular season. Each player will face the other 29 players and then the teams with the top eight records at the end of the season will go into a playoff.
