President Donald Trump gives a speech in the Rose Garden of the White House on Tuesday.
Sports in America, like the rest of the world, have been brought to a virtual standstill by Covid-19. Baseball, meanwhile, was reported to be considering sequestering 30 teams in Arizona – or perhaps Arizona and Florida – to open the season playing games in empty ballparks. “From our perspective, we don’t have a plan, we have lots of ideas,” MLB commissioner Rob Manfred said in a television interview on Tuesday. “What ideas come to fruition will depend on what the restrictions are, what the public health situation is.”
That could get live sports back on television, at least, although Trump indicated that he’s keen for more.“We’re not going to rip out every other seat in baseball stadiums and football stadiums.”
