One of the US pro leagues is exploring playing games outside the US because for a certain “fee,” paid to the government and the people in charge, they are willing to waive social distancing.

Major League Baseball

South Korea

As South Korea’s top baseball league readies to play, its message may resonate with MLB: ‘Put on the mask’

The logo for the NC Dinos, a team in South Korea’s KBO League, mimics so many other franchises worldwide: A dinosaur holding a bat and appearing somehow ferocious and cuddly.

That image got a recent alteration on the Dinos’ social media channels, featuring a look that soon may be quite familiar for athletes and fans.

The dinosaur is now wearing a protective mask.

The KBO, too, has added a masked figure to its league logo, urging fans to “put on the mask,” while the Samsung Lions on Monday sent online birthday greetings to pitcher Won Tae-in – with a picture of the birthday boy clad in a mask while applying soap to his hands.

Sound a little, uh, heavy-handed? Well, consider that South Korea’s highest level of baseball is hopeful to begin its season on April 20 – while every major North American sports league is likely shuttered into the summer, at least, due to cases of COVID-19 that are still ticking upward. – Source
