Due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the 2020 MLB regular season was limited to just 60 games, although the league was able to have an expanded postseason.
While there were a few issues throughout the course of the season, MLB managed to navigate the challenges and crown a champion with the Los Angeles Dodgers defeating the Tampa Bay Rays in the World Series.
With the focus now shifting toward the 2021 season, the hope was that MLB would get back to having a full 162 regular-season games. Dodgers president Stan Kasten even recently expressed optimism they will be able to have fans in stadiums.
