Has Baseball Season Started?
Contents
It’s a question on everyone’s mind. When will baseball season start? Has baseball season started?
Introduction
It’s that time of year again! Spring has arrived, which means that baseball season is just around the corner. Although the official start date has not yet been announced, we can expect the season to begin sometime in early April.
What Happened Last Year?
In 2020, the baseball season was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The season eventually started in late July and ended in early November. The Los Angeles Dodgers won the World Series.
Why This Year is Different
This year, baseball season is a little different. In the past, baseball season typically started in early April and ended in late September or early October. However, this year, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, baseball season will start in late July and end in late September. Additionally, there will be no All-Star Game this year. These changes were made in order to reduce the risk of players and staff contracting and spreading the virus.
The Players to Watch
The 2019 baseball season is just around the corner, and fans are eagerly anticipating another exciting campaign. While every team has its fair share of stars, there are a few players who are sure to capture the attention of the entire league. Here are three players to keep an eye on this season:
1. Mike Trout, Los Angeles Angels – One of the best players in the game, Trout is always a treat to watch. He’s a five-tool player who can do it all, and he’s coming off another terrific season in which he hit .312 with 39 home runs and 79 RBI.
2. Bryce Harper, Philadelphia Phillies – Harper is another superstar who needs no introduction. He’s fresh off signing a massive 13-year, $330 million contract with the Phillies, and he’ll be looking to live up to the hype in 2019. In his career, Harper has hit .279 with 184 home runs and 521 RBI.
3. Gerrit Cole, Houston Astros – Cole was acquired by the Astros last offseason in a trade with the Pittsburgh Pirates, and he didn’t disappoint in his first year with his new team. In 2018, Cole went 15-5 with a 2.88 ERA and 276 strikeouts in 200 innings pitched. He’ll be an ace at the top of Houston’s rotation once again in 2019.
Conclusion
From all of this, we can conclude that baseball season has not started yet.
