Despite my general aversion to professional sports (especially football), I do love baseball. It reminds me of happy days decades ago in the cheap seats at Yankee Stadium, when a kid could get a general admission ticket on the day of the game for the money in a kid's pocket. No more.
The baseball season should be well underway by now but Busch Stadium, seen through the center field gate, holds nothing but ghosts. No crowds stream past the iconic statue of Stan Musial. There is talk of starting the season in Arizona and Florida before empty stadiums. The umpires would be computerized camera systems so the ump at home plate doesn't take his usual crouch inches above the catcher. When it is safe the regular season would resume. The purists won't like it but the Cardinals will be back on TV. It's the only thing I ever watch.

It may be the case here.
