Springfield Cardinals season will be delayed due to coronavirus

Opening day for the Springfield Cardinals at Hammons Field is going to have a different feel this year, but we're going to have to wait a while.

Springfield's opening day will be delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic as both Major League Baseball and Minor League Baseball are put on hold for the foreseeable future.

The MiLB announced on Thursday it will announce additional information about the 2020 season at a later date while saying the health of fans, players and executives are its No. 1 priority.

The Springfield Cardinals said Friday it will follow the guidance of the MLB and MiLB as the situation develops.
