Globe Life Field, where 40,000 people gathered… Dangerous’no mask’

Ryu Hyun-jin (34, Toronto Blue Jays) said, “I am looking forward to seeing a crowded audience in a long time,” ahead of the expedition to Texas. “He said.

In fact, on the 6th (Korean time), the Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, where the Toronto major league matches for the US pro baseball and the Texas Rangers were held, were crowded.

The number of paid spectators that day was 38,238.

The actual audience was more than 40,000.

Sports Illustrated (SI) said, “The maximum number of spectators in Globe Life Field is 4518.

The Texas club has invited medical officials devoted to Corona 19 for free.

Ryu Hyun-jin watched the game while wearing a mask at Dougout this day.

However, unlike Ryu Hyun-jin’s wish, there were too many fans in the audience who did not wear masks.

For the first time in the history of American professional sports, the Texas club allowed ‘100% spectator entry’ in the’Corona 19 Era’.

President Joe Biden expressed concern that he was’irresponsible’, but the Texas club showed a willingness to “make a thorough quarantine plan.”

The Texas club has also disclosed measures such as’Wear a mask except when eating food’,’Use digital tickets to reduce contact’, and’Keep distance when entering and exiting’.

Fans who visited the stadium were delighted to see the’wide open audience’.

“I came to the stadium with my son,” said Gerald Esparsa, 63, a longtime Texas fan.

I am worried about Corona 19, but the club must have taken sufficient measures to prevent quarantine,” he said. “I use masks well.”

Texas coach Chris Woodward said, “(100% audience position) can give you a message of hope.”

However, there were many fans who watched without wearing a mask throughout the game.

Vaccination is being done, but the world has yet to escape the fear of Corona 19.

The same goes for the major leagues.

The opening three consecutive matches against the New York Mets were postponed after a confirmed Corona 19 came out from the Washington Nationals.

Excluding the Texas Rangers, 29 major league clubs are sticking to the spectator position below 50%.

On this day, Texas drew attention with’the most crowded position in the Corona 19 era’.

At the same time, I also heard the criticism of’Happy Celebrations’.

The voice of criticism grew as the fans spectating without a mask stood out.
