The Tampa Bay Rays have announced they will allow about 1/4 of the seats to be filled at Tropicana Field this season. Go ahead... make the obvious joke if you feel the need to.
Fans will sit in "pods" so they stay socially-distanced from others in attendance. The Times thinks they'll likely open the upper deck seats back up so they can keep fans apart easier. And yes, face masks will be required.
