Are you looking for some good news? Me too. Well, the Lotte Giants just played the first of three televised intrasquad games (April 10, 14 & 18) in Busan, South Korea as the KBO League looks to start its season next month. There are no fans but it looks and sounds like baseball. pic.twitter.com/kzUVh58n46

Coronavirus cases have been on a downward trend in South Korea to the point where the 10-team league believes they’ll not only be able to start in early May, but they’ll be able to play the entire 144-game season with preseason games beginning on April 21.
Another positive day for Korea. Only 27 new COVID-19 cases were reported today by Korea’s CDC. First time in 50 days since daily positives were in the 20’s. Meanwhile in Busan, #LotteGiants played 1st night game which was televised nationally. pic.twitter.com/IHFpXNLyRv

This could be a good sign for US sports resuming.
Definitely points to social distancing being effective.
