Start of Shuckers season delayed due to Coronavirus

If Major League Baseball is under lock and key so goes the same for Minor League Baseball.

That means the Biloxi Shuckers won’t start their season as scheduled next month due to the Coronavirus.

- if major league baseball is - under lock and key... so goes - the - same for minor league baseball.- - - - that means the biloxi shuckers- won't start their season as - scheduled, next month... due to- the corona-virus.

- - "i think this is something- unlike- anything that we've ever seen.- we've seen strikes that have- delayed seasons.

We - saw rain that delayed the start- of our season by a day last - year.

But across all sports,- it's- very different and very surreal- to see what's going on.

But i - think that leagues and- organizations aren't knee-jerk- reacting to this.

You don't - cancel the ncaa tournament- because of a hunch.

You don't - suspend spring training because- of a hunch.

- you don't delay the start of a- minor league season because you- just have a feeling - about something.

There's scienc- behind it and there's public- health at the - core of it."- - -
