Professional baseball, which will start on the 25th of this month, will enter the season for the first time in three years without setting a limit on the number of spectators. We will continue. "
In professional baseball, the number of spectators was limited for the last two years due to the spread of the new coronavirus infection, and there were some games that were not spectated.
In this year, the infection spread again, and priority measures such as prevention of spread were applied to various places, but since it was lifted in all areas on the 21st, the number of spectators was not limited for the first time in 3 years. It will be the opening of the event.
In addition, this season's professional baseball will be extended up to 12 times for the first time in three years, even for the extra time that was irregular due to the influence of the new coronavirus.
Atsushi Ihara, Executive Director of NPB, said, "I am happy to be able to enter without restrictions. However, there is still a long way to go. We will continue to take measures to prevent the spread of infection until the end." I'm talking.
