MESA, Arizona — Earlier Tuesday, I wrote about my feelings about going to a baseball game for the first time in almost a year.
I won’t lie — I was somewhat apprehensive, given the pandemic that we’re not quite out of yet, and the fact that I hadn’t really been out anywhere except the grocery store and Costco, and a couple of outdoor patios at restaurants, since March 2020.
All of those apprehensions vanished Tuesday. The Cubs have gone above and beyond in making Sloan Park as safe as possible for the approximate 20 percent of capacity they can have at games this year.
