Even if you live under a rock, by now, you’re probably aware of the coronavirus, which has, at this point, impacted over 118,000 people globally, killing more than 4,000, according to the latest report from the World Health Organization.
So far, Major League Baseball and the Chicago Cubs have remained relatively unscathed – although the league is already looking at contingency plans ahead of the regular season opening on March 26. Across the globe, including here in the United States, events and gatherings have already been canceled, delayed or postponed.
In fact, all sporting events in Italy (Serie A included) have been put off until early April while Asian World Cup qualifying matches in March and June were postponed as well.
