Yesterday, the 2020 MLB season was supposed to kick off. At 4:10 on Thursday afternoon, Kevin Newman was supposed to step into the box to face the first pitch of the 2020 Pittsburgh Pirates season.
Well, unfortunately, due to the spread of COVID-19 this did not happen. Worst of all, no one knows if/when the 2020 MLB season will begin. As depressing as that is, especially at a time in our country when a lot of people are facing unprecedented hardships making the release from the real world sports offers needed more than maybe ever before, there will be no sports in the foreseeable future, baseball included.
