Baseball Returns With What Promises To Be a Surreal Opening Day

If someone told us a year ago that the 2020 Major League Baseball season would kick off in mid-july with games being played in empty stadiums, we'd have thought they were crazy. Of course, the same could be said of so many things in our current reality. Baseball's return tonight promises to be a surreal affair, with games being called remotely, and talk of cardboard cutouts in the stands.
