For the first time, the Texas Rangers will play in front of fans at Globe Life Field this week.
The team will host the Milwaukee Brewers on Monday and Tuesday in two exhibition games before opening the season on the road in Kansas City on Thursday. The Rangers will return home on Monday for the home opener against Toronto.
The team is allowing for full capacity at Globe Life Field (40,518 fans) during the exhibition games and during next week’s home opener — though fans will be required to wear masks when not eating or drinking.
There is not a unified plan from Major League Baseball when it comes to seating capacity this season, it will be decided by each individual team. A lot of teams have worked with their local government and health departments to think of the best way to allow fans while keeping everyone safe.
